What customers say

Know before you buy
The board consists of two parts. The acacia wood base should be wiped clean with a damp cloth, while the slate insert must be hand-washed only to preserve the engraved design and material integrity.
No, the slate insert is not dishwasher, oven, or microwave safe. High heat and harsh detergents can damage the stone and the engraved Lake Almanor design.
No, the slate insert is removable. This two-part construction allows you to easily lift the slate out for cleaning or to serve items directly from the stone.
The board measures approximately 9 inches by 13 inches, providing a compact yet functional surface for arranging cheeses, fruits, and charcuterie.
While the slate is durable, it is primarily designed as a serving platter. We recommend using a separate cutting board to slice your ingredients to avoid dulling your knives or scratching the engraved surface.
