Product Insights
From a 180-year family-run retailer, this $18 natural stone tray offers a cool, unique surface that stays put, holding up to 49 cheese cubes or nine crackers with a ramekin, and is part of a coordinated collection. However, it requires hand-washing, no oiling, and pre-placement before loading; the unsealed stone absorbs stains and can etch from acidic foods, and it is not a cutting surface. The tray’s weight provides stability but makes it awkward to carry when loaded, and each piece has one-of-a-kind veining.
