This big, beautiful and rustic slate board is made from pure slate. We recommend that you use this extremely decorative product to serve up everyday dishes, or when you want to impress your guests. The slate board is microwave safe. But it is not suitable for use in ovens, or in direct contact with fire. You can serve the most delicious and wonderfully looking plates of cold meats, sushi, cheeses, or other treats. You can also use the slate board to display your spice mixes from Nicolas Vahé.
