FAQs
Is the acacia wood sustainably sourced?
Yes, the product description specifies that the acacia wood is sustainably sourced.
Can I use this board as a cutting board?
While the wood is durable, the lacquered finish is best preserved if the board is used primarily for serving rather than direct chopping.
How large is the serving surface?
The board measures 56.5cm in width and 20.5cm in length, providing a generous area for serving or display.
Is the board dishwasher safe?
No, the board is not dishwasher safe. It should be hand-washed with a damp cloth.
How do I clean the lacquered surface?
Simply wipe the lacquered surface with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
Will the wood grain be exactly like the picture?
No, natural wood grain varies. Each board will have its own unique pattern and tone, adding to its individual character.
Can I place hot dishes directly on the board?
Yes, the durable acacia wood can be used to place hot dishes on top, offering both function and style.
Troubleshooting
Board appears dry or dull
Apply a thin coat of food-safe mineral oil and buff with a soft cloth. Allow it to soak in for a few hours before wiping off any excess.
Stains or sticky residue remain after use
Gently scrub the affected area with a mild soap and water using a soft sponge. Rinse and dry immediately.
Minor scratches or scuffs on the surface
Light scratches can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, consider a light re-application of food-safe wood polish or oil.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This board requires no assembly and is ready for immediate use. It is compatible with most kitchen and dining aesthetics. To care for your Tala board:
- Cleaning: Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the board in water.
- Drying: Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth after cleaning.
- Maintenance: While the lacquered finish provides protection, for prolonged life and to maintain the wood's natural luster, consider applying a food-safe mineral oil periodically, especially if used frequently for serving food.
- Avoid: Do not place in the dishwasher. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct heat or sunlight, which can cause the wood to warp or crack. While durable, it is not recommended for heavy chopping directly on the surface if you wish to preserve the finish.
