The Tiered Slate Stand is an exquisite addition to any gathering, designed to impress your guests with its modern aesthetic and functional versatility. Whether you are showcasing delectable appetizers, mouth-watering desserts, or a selection of cheeses and meats, this stand elevates your serving game to new heights. Crafted from natural slate sourced from Upstate New York, it not only serves as a practical serving solution but also as a stunning decorative piece for your kitchen countertop.
This tiered stand is perfect for a variety of occasions, from casual family gatherings to elegant dinner parties. Fill it with cupcakes, cookies, or a charcuterie selection, and watch as it becomes the centerpiece of your table. The natural edge of the slate adds a rustic charm, making it ideal for both formal and informal settings.
One of the standout features of the Tiered Slate Stand is its easy assembly. The tray comes unassembled to ensure safe delivery, and it takes approximately 60 seconds to put together. This feature is particularly beneficial for those who may not want to leave it out daily, as it allows for convenient storage when not in use. Simply disassemble and tuck it away until your next event!
The stand features a bottom slate measuring approximately 10 inches and a top slate measuring around 6 inches. It comes with all necessary components, including six washers, one screw for the bottom, one longer screw pole for the middle, and one handle for the top. The EVA feet on the bottom prevent scratching of surfaces, ensuring that your countertops remain pristine.
Slate is renowned for its excellent heat insulation properties, making it a fantastic choice for keeping food warm during parties. Each piece of slate has a unique pattern and color, adding to the charm of your serving display. The natural edge not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also provides a distinctive surface for serving cheeses and hors d'oeuvres. You can even use chalk or soapstone to label your favorite cheeses directly on the slate!
To maintain the beauty of your Tiered Slate Stand, it is essential to follow proper care instructions. Avoid placing it in the oven or microwave, as it may crack under heat. Cleaning is simple; use liquid detergent with a cloth, but refrain from using brushes or steel wool to prevent scratching. The slate is food safe and non-toxic, ensuring that your culinary creations are served safely.
Applying food-grade mineral oil can dramatically change the appearance of your slate stand. Without oil, the slate has a rustic, chalk-like look, while applying mineral oil darkens the slate to a sleek black finish. We offer the option to apply mineral oil for you at an additional cost, or you can purchase it separately and apply it yourself. Just a pea-sized drop goes a long way in maintaining the integrity of the slate and enhancing its natural beauty.
Our Tiered Slate Stand is not only beautiful but also eco-friendly. The slate is impervious to fungus and mold, making it a safe choice for food presentation. Each stand is made from all-natural slate, ensuring that you are making a sustainable choice for your home. Sourced from a quarry in Upstate New York, you can feel good about your purchase knowing it supports local craftsmanship.
In summary, the Tiered Slate Stand is a must-have for anyone who loves to entertain. Its combination of style, functionality, and ease of use makes it the perfect addition to your kitchenware collection. Whether you are hosting a party or simply enjoying a quiet evening at home, this stand will elevate your serving experience.
