Know before you buy
No, natural travertine is a porous stone, so you can expect small, organic pits and variations in the texture. These characteristics are part of the stone's natural beauty and ensure that no two cake stands are exactly alike.
The stand should be hand washed only. Use a soft cloth or sponge with mild soap and water, then dry it immediately to prevent moisture from soaking into the stone.
Absolutely. While it is designed for desserts, the sturdy, elegant surface is perfect for displaying appetizers, cheeses, or pastries. It functions well as a decorative centerpiece even when not in use for food.
The small version measures 9.5 inches in diameter with a height of 4.5 inches, while the large version is 11.5 inches in diameter with a height of 4 inches. Choose the size based on the scale of the cakes or platters you typically serve.
The stand features a natural finish. Because travertine is a porous material, we recommend using a liner or parchment paper if you are serving items that are oily or highly pigmented to prevent potential staining.
