Deeply textured wood cast in aluminum & finished with a black anodized coating. This unique serving platter is a beautiful table centerpiece as well as a fruit bowl, decorative plate or food serving platter (cheese, charcuterie, seafood, bread, horderves, appetizers, sushi, to name a few!). The rich matte black finish mixes beautifully with other pieces in wood, ceramic, or metal. Its heft & texture have many mistaking it for ceramic. Oven safe to 400oF, it is perfect for warm, hot or cold foods. The platter is 10 square, 0.8 high & weighs 2 pounds. Care - Anodized aluminum should be hand washed with dish soap & towel or air dried only. Any Scotchbite pad or nylon brush is fine if needed. Dishwasher use should be avoided. What is Black Anodized? - Referred to as hardcoat or Type III anodized, this coating is typically utilized for performance more than aesthetics in industry but for us, it is both. To achieve it, each piece is submerged in a bath of acid that accelerates nature & oxidized the surface charcoal grey. An electrical current is run through the bath & the oxidized coating is fused to the aluminum surface creating the “hardcoat”. Anodizing the aluminum serveware increases the hardness of the surface leaving a durable, scratch resistant piece. Learn more about our Metal Serveware on the “Our Process” page on our website.
