This silver-plated 3-tier cake stand is handcrafted from solid brass in Marrakech using traditional Moroccan metalwork techniques. Three graduated tiers — 16cm, 20cm, and 25cm in diameter — rise to a total height of 27cm, each rim bordered with hand-engraved geometric and ornamental lace-like patterns. The mirror-polish silver-plated finish reflects light across baroque scrollwork and scalloped edges, while the ornate center column and decorative finial complete the silhouette. Heavy-gauge brass construction and a weighted pedestal base ensure stability even when fully loaded.

The Artisan Story
Each serving tower is shaped, engraved, and finished by metalworking artisans in Marrakech who have preserved classical Moroccan brass techniques for generations. The geometric and ornamental patterns draw from a long tradition of Moroccan decorative metalwork, combining precise hand-engraved lines with flowing ornamental borders that catch candlelight and ambient room light differently throughout the day. The mirror finish requires multiple polishing stages after silver-plating — a labor-intensive process that distinguishes authentic handcrafted pieces from mass-produced alternatives.
