Know before you buy
To preserve the wood, hand wash the servers with mild soap and warm water, then dry them immediately. Avoid soaking them or putting them in the dishwasher, as this can cause the wood to warp or crack.
Because each set is carved from a single piece of sustainably sourced Ziricote wood, the grain patterns and natural colors will vary. You should expect your specific set to have unique markings that differ from the product images.
Yes, Ziricote is a dense, high-quality wood that is suitable for serving salads. However, it is best to rinse the servers promptly after use to prevent acidic ingredients like vinegar or lemon juice from sitting on the wood surface for extended periods.
The servers are finished with beeswax to protect the wood. To maintain the luster and prevent the wood from drying out, you can periodically apply a food-safe mineral oil or wood conditioner.
Each server in the set measures 12 1/5 inches in length, providing a comfortable reach for most standard salad bowls.
