The orchid motif creates a beautiful centerpiece, showcasing luxurious craftsmanship with durable metalwork and a marble finish.

Know before you buy
This board is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the finish, hand wash the marble and metal components with mild soap and water, then dry immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
Yes, the marble surface is food-safe and ideal for serving cheeses, charcuterie, and appetizers. We recommend avoiding acidic foods like citrus or vinegar directly on the brass accents to prevent tarnishing.
Given its marble construction and 2.5-inch thickness, the board is quite substantial and heavy. This weight provides excellent stability, ensuring it stays securely in place on your table or countertop during use.
The coordinating knife is designed for serving and slicing soft to semi-hard cheeses. For very hard or aged cheeses, we recommend using a dedicated cheese cleaver to avoid putting excessive pressure on the knife's decorative handle.
The board features a flat base designed to sit flush against your serving surface. Because of its significant weight, it remains stable on most flat surfaces without the need for additional rubber feet.
