Linen and Flax Marble Board with Canape Knife

Yes, marble is a durable, non-porous surface that works well for slicing cheeses and appetizers. However, keep in mind that marble is harder than wood and can dull your knife blades faster over time.

Hand wash the board with mild soap and warm water, then dry it immediately to prevent water spots. Avoid putting it in the dishwasher, as the heat and harsh detergents can damage the stone and the leather tie.

Marble is a natural, porous stone, so it can absorb oils or pigments from highly acidic or staining foods like red wine, citrus, or balsamic vinegar. It is best to wipe up spills quickly and avoid leaving strong-staining ingredients on the surface for extended periods.

While marble is heat-resistant, it is primarily designed for serving and preparation. It is generally safe for warm appetizers, but avoid placing extremely hot pans directly on the surface to prevent thermal shock or potential cracking.

The leather tie is designed for both decorative display and convenient storage. It is sturdy enough to hang the board on a standard kitchen hook, though we recommend checking the tie periodically for any signs of wear if you hang it frequently.
