Over the last few years they’ve expanded their boards (by selling in places like West Elm) to include customizable engraving, adding cheese knives and even offering a rare red slate. Investing in one of their cheeseboard keep you prepared for any sort of event or get together you have and shows your guests that you know how to host.
