Two-tier Patera fruit/serving stand Katex Patera 2 (model 006099)

Katex Patera 2 is a two-tier fruit and serving stand designed to present and organize food items on two levels. The compact, multi-level design provides separate surfaces for fruits, pastries and appetizers, allowing clear arrangement on dining tables, buffets or home gatherings. Intended for everyday use and small events, this two-tier patera combines functional separation with a minimal footprint to make table service more efficient.

Advantages

The two-tier layout increases display capacity without occupying additional table surface, enabling efficient use of vertical space. Its distinct upper and lower plates help separate item types to avoid mixing flavors and textures. The fixture is suitable for quick setup and allows convenient access to items from different angles, making it practical for both family meals and informal catering.

Suitable for

• Presenting fresh fruit in kitchens and dining rooms
• Displaying pastries and small desserts at buffets
• Organizing appetizers and finger food at parties or gatherings
• Space-saving tabletop presentation in cafes or home entertaining

When it may not be suitable

This two-tier patera is intended for lightweight food items such as fruit, pastries and small appetizers. It may not be suitable for heavy or oversized items that require a larger, single rigid surface. If you need a large-capacity or commercial-grade display for heavy platters, consider a dedicated serving tray or professional display stand instead.
