PANTON TRAY MEDIUM

by Verner Panton, 1988

Panton Tray by Georg Jensen in the size medium is a decorative and food-safe tray made of shiny stainless steel. Despite its robustness, the special design makes the tray appear delicate and light, as Panton Tray is reminiscent of a crumpled sheet of paper. Panton Tray thus combines avoidable opposites, the Optik of light paper with the robustness of solid stainless steel.

The anti-functionalist trend in 1980s design is reflected in the Panton Tray as well as in a number of other design classics: from Ron Arad's 'Bad tempered Chair' to the 'Juicy Salif' lemon squeezer by Philipe Starck for the Italian cult label Alessi. "What matters to me is not how things look, but what feelings they trigger," Starck is quoted as saying in an article in the Rheinische Post. With 'Juicy Salif', it was never about functionality, but only about the spectacle.

In contrast, Panton Tray proves to be extremely practical and versatile in everyday use. Panton Tray offers a refreshing alternative to conventional bowls made of glass, metal or plastic, and not just for food such as fruit, vegetables, cookies, nuts and other snacks. Panton Tray is also the ideal collection point for keys and all sorts of odds and ends from your jacket pocket, such as small change and cards.

To clarify the design language for Panto Tray, Panton is said to have asked the producer Georg Jensen took a sheet, crumpled it up and pulled it apart again. Voilà c'est Panton Tray.

This makes the living object suitable for both indoor and outdoor use and undoubtedly belongs to the genre of '20th century decorative art'.
