Crafthouse Petrified Wood Platter 8-10 Inch #31229

• Petrified wood is mineralized stone, not timber: Over millions of years, the original wood cellular structure was replaced by minerals, preserving the grain and ring patterns in a hard, stone-like material. This is what produces the visible concentric rings, varied coloration and natural markings visible on the surface.
• No two platters are identical: Size, color, grain pattern, edge shape and surface markings all vary from piece to piece — and from the photos shown. The 8–10" diameter and 3/4–1" thickness ranges reflect natural variation between individual pieces, not a selectable option.
• At 7.7 lbs, the dense mineral composition keeps it firmly in place while serving — it won't slide or tip with a loaded spread.
• Sealed with a food-safe clear coat on the serving surface.
• Wipe clean with a damp sponge only — not dishwasher safe and should not be soaked or submerged.
• The irregular natural live edge is preserved as-formed; no two platters share the same silhouette.
• Cheese knives and serving tools shown in product images are not included.

Will my platter look exactly like the one in the photos?

A: No — and that is the point. Each platter is cut from a unique piece of natural petrified wood, so no two are alike. Your platter will have its own shape, color, ring pattern and natural imperfections that differ from the images shown. The size range of 8 to 10 inches in diameter also means individual pieces vary slightly within that window.

Is this platter safe to put food directly on it?

A: Yes. Each platter is finished with a food-safe clear sealant applied over the preserved wood surface, making it suitable for serving cheese, charcuterie and other foods directly on the board. The seal also protects the natural surface from moisture and staining during use.

How do you clean a petrified wood platter?

A: Wipe clean with a damp sponge — that is all. Do not submerge it in water, run it through the dishwasher or soak it. Because petrified wood is a mineralized stone-like material, harsh cleaning methods or prolonged moisture exposure could damage the sealed surface over time.

What is petrified wood, and how is it different from a regular wood board?

A: Petrified wood is ancient organic wood that has been replaced by minerals over millions of years, turning the original wood structure into a dense, stone-like material. Unlike a traditional wood cutting board, it will not absorb odors, warp from humidity or develop knife grooves — and the visible growth rings and natural grain patterns are preserved in mineral form, giving each piece a look that no manufactured board can replicate.

How much surface area does the 8–10 inch platter actually give you for a cheese spread?

A: At 8 to 10 inches in diameter and roughly 3/4 to 1 inch thick, this is a focused single-serve or intimate two-person board. It comfortably holds two or three small cheese portions, a small ramekin of spread and some garnishes — as shown in the product images. For a larger party spread, a bigger platter would be the better fit; this size works well as a dedicated individual board or as one piece in a multi-board tablescape.

Do the cheese knives shown in the photos come with the platter?

A: No. The cheese knives and serving tools visible in the product photos are not included with this platter and are shown for styling purposes only. The purchase includes the petrified wood platter only.
