These Small Lotus Leaf Trays are made of Hanji - Korean traditional paper, which a harvested material is used, with no trees being cut down, but rather from the branches of one year old mulberry trees that grow back.
The flexible Hanji paper tray is reminiscent of real leaves. The tray is not only flexible, but can also be shaped with your hands.
Each tray is varnished with a natural shellac which makes them water-resistant and re-usable, also being well-known as a non-toxic food safe material. They can be washed by gently applying running water, or wiped with a wet towel, then dried with a towel and reused. Unlike biodegradable products that are weak to heat due to ultra-high temperature processing, it can be used in the microwave without deformation. In addition, it has an oil-resistant function, so oil will not be absorbed into the plate even if oily food is placed on it.
Please note: the shellac is vulnerable to heat, therefore your tray is recommended for use with cold and dry items or foods.
