A men's rectangular leather valet tray with a distressed finish and snap corners: a desk or bedside catchall and a gift for him.
Made from brown leather with a distressed, oiled look, it has a contrast-stitched panel in the base and a stitched edge around the rim. Each corner is gathered up and closed with a brass-tone press stud, forming low walls that keep small things from wandering off.
It measures roughly 17.5 by 11.5 centimetres with walls around 3.3 centimetres high, enough room for a car key, house keys, a watch and a few coins at once. The leather is designed to develop a patina with use, darkening and softening where it is handled most. The compact footprint also makes it easy to find a spot for in a small flat or a busy hallway. It is available in a Classic edition and a Personalised edition.
Keep it by the door for the things you grab on the way out, on your desk for pens and earbuds, or on a dressing table for cufflinks and a ring. The rich brown sits comfortably with country-style interiors and pairs naturally with a flat cap or a leather wallet as a gift. It is a sensible, useful present for a husband, father or groomsman who likes his everyday carry kept in good order.
Dimensions and details for this piece are listed under Technical details. If you have a question before ordering, write to us.
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth and keep it away from prolonged moisture and direct heat. If the leather dries out over time, a little neutral leather cream will restore it; test it first on the underside.

Our pieces, out in the real world.
In 1924, our grandfather, Albert Whitley, opened a small outfitter’s shop in Yorkshire. Our father, Henry, carried it forward. Today, we continue the family business with the same belief: good materials, useful things and pieces made to be worn for years.
The counter may now be a website, but the standard remains much the same. Old craft. Modern wear.
Each piece names its exact material under Technical details, whether full-grain, top-grain or split leather, vegan leather or metal. If a piece is not listed as leather, it is not leather.
Pieces with a tracker slot say so under Technical details. The tracker itself is not included.
Dimensions, card capacity and laptop size are listed under Technical details for every piece. Belts are sized by full strap length: choose about 2 in (5 cm) above your trouser waist size. If you want us to confirm a fit before ordering, write to us.
Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth, condition it once or twice a year with a neutral leather cream, and let it dry naturally if it gets wet. Full-grain leather darkens and softens with use; that patina is part of its character.
