Catchall Trays

Billykirk, $35

As men, we carry a decent amount of stuff with us each day. And when you get home or back to your desk at work, you need a place to put it. Empty your pockets into one of these handsome catchall trays. In practical terms, they serve as a target for tossing your keys, coins, phone or pocket knife. But from a more aesthetic standpoint, they offer a chance to keep your shit organized while adding some retro swagger to your home or office. There's an old fashioned feel to these leather or wood trays that recalls the gentlemen of yesteryear.
