Meli wanted fruit lifted like an offering — she made this Samira round stone tray on three ball feet, honed travertine or Bvlgari Red, so breakfast can have a stage in a kitchen that already feeds a full house.
In an age of abundance, Meli does not hide from choice. She imagines an object, fusses until it feels like hers, then celebrates it in public — a curriculum you can pick up with your hands.
Fruit on the counter looked like a grocery run. Samira — the woman she named this collection for — used to clear a surface before cooking, not from fussiness, from love. Meli imagined citrus raised on stone feet: the altar version of abundance, not the spill.
Three ball feet, ceremonial without preciousness. She filled it, emptied it, asked Samira’s question in her head: will you use it together? Create until the empty tray still commands the island.
Celebrate.
Elevation changes meaning. She celebrates a tray that turns daily fruit into a gathering magnet — order as making room, not as control. The family still raids the oranges. The oranges now have a plot.
Lift what you share. A few centimetres of stone can turn groceries into ceremony.
Finish, scale, the version your hands already know. Selection is how meaning becomes yours — not a setting buried in a menu.
