Some words are meant to be repeated. I Love You. I Love You. reads like a confession written once, then written again, and again, until it feels undeniable. The handwritten script feels intimate and insistent, as if love itself needed reassurance, or perhaps simply wanted to linger. It is tender, unguarded, and quietly powerful, a reminder that saying it once is never quite enough.
Handcrafted in our New York City studio using the traditional French art of decoupage, this bent-glass tray is made one at a time, layering expressive lettering beneath glass and firing it into permanence. The surface is luminous and tactile, with subtle variations that make each piece feel deeply personal. Every tray is individually signed by Ben, grounding it in his distinctive aesthetic for the charming and the unusual.
Designed to live beautifully in the everyday, the tray is food safe, wipe clean, and finished with a felted back. It can rest flat on a tabletop, stand on a gallery easel, or hang with a plate hanger as a softly spoken declaration that never wears out. Each piece arrives with a folded card explaining the time-honored decoupage process.

The French call it découpage, pronounced day-coo-pahzh. It flourished in the salons of 18th-century France, where paper, patience, and a steady hand turned everyday objects into works of art.
Ben honors the French technique, in reverse. The artwork goes on the underside of the glass, by hand, so you look through the glass to see it. Nothing sits on the surface. The image seems to float, lit from within, the way a pressed flower looks when you hold it up to a window.
Every design starts with something Ben discovered or created. A pattern he drew. A botanical plate or a scrap of antique paper carried home from a market in Europe, chosen because it meant something.
Decoupage is a science of perfection. Each piece is made slowly in our New York studios by a talented team of artists, patient and exacting, who will not settle for less than a perfect result. Each one is backed in felt, so it can rest safely on a cocktail table, and signed by the artist, Ben Busko.
Each tray is decoupaged by hand beneath the glass. A little care keeps the artwork beautiful.
Suitable for hanging with a plate hanger or standing on a gallery easel.
