Description
This is a serving board in white marble, paired with a small stainless steel spreading knife; the set of two is the board and its knife. The board is 42cm long, 20cm wide and 1.5cm thick, with a broad rounded end that tapers towards a narrower end pierced by a round hole, so it sits on the table like a long paddle. Marble is a natural stone, and its veining settles differently in every slab, so the soft markings across your board will be its own.
Being a kitchen piece approved by the maker for food, it is made for serving. At 42cm long there is room for a wedge or two of cheese, some sliced fruit and a pat of butter, which makes it a good size for drinks with friends, a weekend lunch at the kitchen table or a cheese course after dinner. The round hole at the narrow end gives you a firm grip for carrying it from the worktop to the table. Marble stays cool to the touch, which suits butter and cheese well. It would also make a thoughtful housewarming present for anyone who likes to put out a board when people come round.
The board is marble, and the knife pairs a stainless steel blade with a speckled handle banded with two stripes. Neither piece is suitable for the dishwasher, the microwave or the oven, so wash both by hand and keep the board for serving rather than heating. The weight given is 3KG, which gives the set a solid, settled feel. For a simple spread, gather the cheese and fruit towards the broad end, lay the knife alongside, and leave the narrow end clear so the veining shows.

Frequently Asked
What is the serving board made of?
The board is marble and the knife has a stainless steel blade with a speckled handle banded with two stripes. As natural stone, the veining varies from board to board.
Can the marble board go in the dishwasher?
No. Neither the board nor the knife is suitable for the dishwasher, the microwave or the oven, so wash both by hand.
How big is the board?
It is 42cm long, 20cm wide and 1.5cm thick, a generous size for cheese, fruit and butter for a small gathering.
What comes in the set of two?
The set is two pieces: the white marble serving board and a small stainless steel spreading knife to go with it.
Can I put cheese and butter straight onto the marble?
Yes. The maker approves the board for food, so cheese, butter, bread and fruit can sit directly on the marble surface.
How heavy is it?
The weight given is 3KG, so it feels solid in the hand, and the round hole at the narrow end gives you a grip for carrying.
