Epic Products Slate & Bamboo Serving Board #75-062
Details
This board is the kind of thing that looks considered on a table without requiring much effort to get there. The dark slate inset sits recessed into a warm bamboo frame, and that contrast — cool stone against honey-toned wood — reads well whether you’re hosting a casual wine night or setting out a pre-dinner spread. The slate lifts out completely for easy wiping, the bamboo frame has a hanging hole so it stores flat and out of the way, and a stainless steel knife is included so the board is ready to use from the start.
Best For
- Setting out cheese, cured meats and bread before guests arrive when you want something that looks thoughtful with minimal setup
- Gifting to a host or friend who entertains regularly but may not own a dedicated cheese board
- Casual wine nights at home where the presentation matters as much as what’s on the board
- Keeping on the counter between uses — the hanging hole means it tucks away just as easily as it comes out
Features
- Two-material serving surface: The dark slate insert sits recessed within a warm bamboo frame, creating natural contrast that looks considered on a table without any extra effort.
- Removable slate insert: The slate lifts out of the bamboo base for separate cleaning — wipe with a damp cloth. Neither piece is dishwasher safe.
- Chalk-compatible slate surface: Slate takes chalk marker easily, so you can label cheeses or accompaniments directly on the board. A chalk pen is included (visible in product images).
- Hanging hole built into the bamboo frame: The corner cutout lets the board hang on a hook when not in use — no dedicated drawer space needed.
- Includes one stainless steel cheese knife with a full metal handle
- Compact footprint (11¾" W × 9¾" D) fits a coffee table spread or a small buffet without dominating the surface

FAQs
What's included with the Slate and Bamboo Serving Board?
A: The set includes the solid bamboo frame, a removable slate board and a stainless steel cheese knife. The bamboo base encases the rough natural edges of the slate, so everything arrives as a finished, ready-to-use set — no additional tools or accessories required to start serving.
Can you write on the slate surface with chalk to label cheeses?
A: Yes. Slate is a natural chalkboard-style surface, so you can use chalk or a chalk marker directly on it to label cheeses, meats or other items for your guests — a detail that tends to get noticed at a well-set table. The slate wipes clean with a damp cloth afterward, removing labels between uses.
How do you clean the board, and is any part of it dishwasher safe?
A: Both the slate and the bamboo frame are cleaned by wiping with a damp cloth — neither should go in the dishwasher. Because the slate is removable, you can clean each piece separately. This is standard care for natural stone and solid bamboo, both of which can crack or warp with prolonged water exposure or heat.
What are the overall dimensions, and how large is the usable slate serving area?
A: The full board measures 11¾" wide x 9¾" deep x ¾" tall. The bamboo frame borders the slate on all sides, so the actual slate surface is somewhat smaller — visually, the slate occupies roughly the center two-thirds of the board, which gives you adequate space for a soft cheese, a few accompaniments and some crackers for a small gathering or two-person spread.
Can the board hang on a wall for storage when not in use?
A: Yes. The bamboo frame has a built-in hanging hole in one corner, so the board can mount on a hook or nail between uses. At 3.8 lbs, it's light enough to hang without any special hardware. This makes it practical for smaller kitchens where counter storage is limited.
Does this work as a hostess or housewarming gift, or does it need additional packaging?
A: The board is a self-contained set — the slate, bamboo frame and stainless steel knife all come together — so there's no need to source a separate knife or accessories. It is made by Epic Products and is compact enough at under 12 inches wide to fit in a gift bag. If a dedicated gift box is important to you, note that the product listing does not specify one is included.
