Know before you buy
While the product name references 24 inches, the board is actually 36 inches long. Its extra-long design is specifically intended to serve as a substantial centerpiece for large charcuterie spreads.
To maintain the wood, hand wash the board with mild soap and water, then dry it immediately. We recommend periodically applying a food-safe mineral oil to keep the ash wood hydrated and prevent it from drying out over time.
Because this board is made from natural ash wood, each piece features unique variations in grain pattern and color. You should expect your board to have its own distinct character that differs slightly from the product imagery.
While you can use it for light slicing, it is primarily designed as a serving platter. Using sharp knives directly on the surface will create cut marks, which will alter the smooth finish of the wood over time.
The board features a flat, plank-style construction without feet. It sits flush against your table or countertop, providing a stable, low-profile base for your cheese and charcuterie arrangements.
