The Natural Beauty of Spalted Beech
Spalted Beech is renowned for its dramatic markings and characterful appearance. Its unique spalting effect produces intricate lines, swirls, and veins across the surface, giving each platter an individual identity that can never be replicated. Pale honey tones blend seamlessly with deep golden hues and rich dark accents, resulting in a colour palette that is both warm and eye-catching.
This natural marbling transforms the platter into a living canvas, where every detail is a reflection of the tree’s life and history. No two pieces are ever alike, ensuring that your platter is completely unique a true one-off piece of functional art.
Whether admired for its design or used to showcase food, the organic grain pattern guarantees attention and conversation.
Handcrafted Excellence
Every Spalted Beech platter is handmade by our artisan craftsman, who carves and shapes the wood with care to preserve its natural flow while achieving a refined finish. The organic edges and gentle curves echo the tree’s natural form, while the carefully smoothed surface makes the piece inviting to both touch and use.
This large Spalted Beech food platter is finely sanded, then treated with multiple coats of food-safe oil and wax. This process enhances the depth of the grain, protects the wood from wear, and ensures it is safe for presenting a wide variety of foods.
Inspired by reservoir-style carving, the platter features a subtle recess that helps keep food securely in place. From rustic breads and colourful salads to charcuterie spreads or even a whole roasted fish, this thoughtful design allows for versatile and elegant presentation.
