What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly adore this charcuterie board for its stunning aesthetic appeal and superior material quality.

Know before you buy
The bark edge is delicate and should be handled with care to prevent chipping. To keep the wood in top condition, we recommend periodically applying a food-safe mineral oil or beeswax to prevent the olive wood from drying out.
This board must be hand washed only. Use warm water and a mild soap, then dry it immediately with a soft cloth; never submerge it in water or place it in the dishwasher, as this can cause the wood to warp or crack.
Because each board is handcrafted in Umbria from natural olive wood, every piece features unique grain patterns, shapes, and dimensions. You should expect slight variations from the product photography, which makes your specific board a one-of-a-kind item.
The rope handle is designed primarily for aesthetic charm and easy transport of light appetizers or cheese. While it is securely attached, we recommend supporting the weight of the board from the bottom when carrying a heavy load to ensure stability.
No, this board is not oven-safe and should not be used to hold hot cookware or food directly from the oven. It is intended for serving room-temperature or chilled items like cheeses, charcuterie, and fruits.
