Trays with a central handle are a well-known variation of this age-old typology. In the present case, a large steel tray has a central handle that branches out at the top, allows you to hang a sample of the fruit found in the underlying tray (such as apples), or a type of fruit that is normally hung from something (such as bananas). This vertical element is also a visual signal to indicate at a distance what the tray contains: a new and decorative way to reinvent the presentation of the fruit on the table.
