Michael Aram Butterfly Ginkgo Bread Board

While it is designed for serving, the hand-textured stainless steel surface can be used for slicing. However, frequent use of sharp knives will eventually scratch the finish, so we recommend using it primarily as a display and serving piece.

This board is not dishwasher safe. To maintain its luster, hand wash with mild soap and warm water, then dry immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the oxidized brass finish.

No, this piece does not feature non-slip feet. Because of the solid construction and weight, it sits firmly on most surfaces, but you may want to use a placemat or tablecloth if you are concerned about scratching delicate wood finishes.

Absolutely. While intended for bread, its generous 21-inch length makes it an excellent platter for charcuterie, appetizers, or decorative fruit displays. Its artistic design makes it a striking centerpiece even when not in use.

The piece uses both natural and oxidized brass, which are intended to develop a unique patina as they age. This natural evolution is part of the design's character, though you can use a high-quality metal polish sparingly if you prefer to keep the brass bright.
