Description
Our acacia serving tray pairs warm hardwood with a panel of natural slate, giving you a serveware piece that works as hard for everyday snacks as it does for entertaining. The acacia base carries the deep grain and honeyed tones that hardwood is known for, while the inset slate offers a cool grey surface with the slightly uneven, matte character you expect from real stone. At 27cm wide and 22cm deep, it holds a generous spread without dominating the table, and the low 2cm profile keeps everything sitting neatly to hand.
This is a versatile addition to any range of serveware and trays. Use the slate section for cheeses, charcuterie or antipasti, and lean on the acacia border for crackers, olives or a small dish of chutney. It suits a relaxed kitchen island as much as a laid table, and the grey stone sits comfortably alongside both rustic and pared-back styling. Cluster it with a couple of small bowls and a wine glass or two for casual grazing, or use it as a standing display for candles and a folded cloth when not in use.
To keep it looking its best, wipe the acacia and slate with a damp cloth after use and dry straight away rather than leaving it to soak. The slate can be marked with chalk for labelling cheeses, then simply wiped clean. An occasional rub of food-safe oil on the wood keeps the grain nourished and helps the tray resist drying over time.

Frequently Asked
What is the tray made from?
It combines a solid acacia hardwood base with an inset panel of natural grey slate, so you get the warmth of wood and the cool, durable surface of real stone in one piece.
How should I style it for entertaining?
Use the slate for cheeses or charcuterie and the acacia border for crackers and small dishes. It pairs well with a couple of little bowls and works on a table or a kitchen island.
Is it big enough for sharing?
At 27cm by 22cm it comfortably serves two to four people for grazing or nibbles, while staying compact enough to store and carry easily.
Can I write on the slate?
Yes, the slate takes chalk well for labelling cheeses or noting a nibble, then wipes clean with a damp cloth ready for next time.
How do I care for the wood?
Wipe with a damp cloth and dry promptly rather than soaking, and apply a food-safe oil to the acacia now and then to keep the grain in good condition.
