Product Information

Full details

This Natural Slate Serving Board from Argon Tableware is designed for hosts who want to add an artisan, rustic touch to their entertaining. Its key benefit is its versatility, offering heat resistance for hot dishes and a stable surface for chilled items, while its natural, imperfect beauty enhances food presentation.

FAQs

Is the slate food-safe?

Yes, the natural slate is food-safe and suitable for direct contact with all types of food.

Can I put hot dishes directly on the board?

Yes, the board has impressive heat resistance and can accommodate hot dishes directly from the oven or stove.

How do I clean the serving board?

Hand wash only with warm, soapy water. Do not use a dishwasher or abrasive cleaners. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.

Will the board scratch my table?

No, the board is equipped with discreet non-slip rubber feet on the underside, which protect your tabletops from scratches and heat marks.

Are all the boards exactly the same?

No, each board is crafted from genuine natural slate with hand-cut edges, meaning there will be unique variations in texture, color, and edge finish. This adds to its rustic charm.

Can I cut directly on the slate surface?

While slate is durable, cutting directly on it can dull your knives and potentially scratch the surface. It is recommended to use separate cutting boards for food preparation and present food on the slate.

How can I maintain the slate's appearance?

Periodically applying a food-safe mineral oil to the slate surface can help maintain its rich color and protective qualities. Ensure it is completely dry after washing.

Troubleshooting

Board appears dull or faded.

Apply a thin layer of food-safe mineral oil to the surface and allow it to soak in. Wipe off any excess with a soft cloth. This will restore the natural depth of color.

Slight wobble or instability.

Check that all four non-slip rubber feet are present and level. If one is missing or damaged, contact customer support. Ensure the serving surface is also flat.

White marks or water spots on the surface.

These can typically be removed by gently rubbing with a soft cloth dampened with water or a very mild soap solution. Dry thoroughly afterward. For stubborn marks, try a small amount of food-safe mineral oil.

Small chip on the edge.

Minor chips are part of the natural charm of hand-cut slate. For safety, gently file any sharp edges with fine-grit sandpaper. Avoid dropping the board to prevent further damage.

  • Seasoning: Periodically, you may wish to apply a food-safe mineral oil to the slate surface to enhance its color and protect it. Allow the oil to soak in for a few hours, then wipe away any excess.
