Know before you buy
Yes, natural slate is a food-safe, non-porous material. It is perfectly suitable for serving cheeses, charcuterie, and appetizers directly on the surface.
Clean the tray with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using a dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents can damage the natural stone finish.
While it is durable enough to serve as a cutting surface, keep in mind that using sharp knives directly on slate will dull your blades faster than wood or plastic boards. It is best suited for light slicing and serving.
Studio Burke offers professional engraving, etching, and sandblasting services. You can personalize the tray with corporate logos, custom messages, or specific designs, making it a great option for branded gifts.
The tray is crafted from natural slate, which can be abrasive. We recommend placing felt pads or a protective cloth underneath the tray if you are using it on delicate surfaces like polished wood or glass.
