A Heritage Etched in Metal
For centuries, Moroccan families have gathered around the siniya—a traditional tea tray table—to share mint tea in a ritual that symbolizes welcome and connection. These classic tables were crafted for both form and function: a hand-engraved metal tray resting on a folding wooden base, easily moved or stored after guests were gone. Our version carries that legacy forward. Each piece is handmade in Morocco using carved cedarwood legs and hammered aluminum or brass trays, with intricate patterns drawn from Moroccan architecture and artisan traditions. These aren't just decorative details—they are the rhythm of Moroccan life, etched into every surface.
Each etching on the tray reflects the rhythm of Moroccan life: geometric motifs, floral whispers, and subtle imperfections that make every table one of a kind.

A Legacy Engraved in Metal
In Moroccan culture, tea isn’t just a drink—it’s a ritual of welcome and warmth. Traditionally, families served mint tea on a siniya—a round, engraved tray perched on collapsible wooden legs. These Moroccan tray tables made hospitality both beautiful and practical.
Today, the tradition continues.
At Moroccan Interior, our artisans hand-hammer each tray from sustainably sourced material, creating rich patterns rooted in centuries-old Moroccan design. Each foldable base is carved from durable cedarwood, giving your table the strength to last—and the soul of North African artistry.
Whether you call it a Moroccan tea table, coffee table, or tray table, its origins run deep.
Style It Your Way: From Boho to Minimalist
One of the most exciting features of this Moroccan tray coffee table is its ability to adapt. Here’s how to style it in your space:
Bohemian Lounge
Place it on a Berber rug, surround it with Moroccan leather poufs, and layer candles, brass lanterns, and textured textiles for a cozy, globally inspired setting.
Minimalist Haven
Let the hand-etched tray top serve as a sculptural statement against a neutral palette. Pair it with clean-lined furniture and a single ceramic vase or eucalyptus sprig.
Indoor-Outdoor Charm
Use this table on a shaded patio as a foldable coffee table for serving tapas, mint tea, or cocktails. The tray reflects light beautifully and folds away when not in use.
Caring for Your Handmade Moroccan Tray Table
Preserve the beauty and longevity of your table with these simple tips:
- Clean Gently – Wipe the tray with mild soap and a soft cloth
- Polish Occasionally – Use an aluminum or brass polish every 6–8 weeks
- Nourish the Wood – Apply natural wood oil or lemon polish to the cedar legs once a month
- Protect It – Avoid placing in direct sunlight or damp environments for extended periods
Your handmade Moroccan tea table will only grow more beautiful with time and care.
