Description

These dark wood charcuterie boards are part of our exclusive “Anker” Collection. The First Mate Serving Board is a sleek, nautical serving board for the modern hostess.

Available in small and large sizes, featuring a hole for hanging and handling and an optional anchor symbol engraved into the corner of each piece.

We set the foundation for these dark-wood charcuterie boards out of the very popular hardwoods: Black Walnut and Hard Maple then kicked it up a notch with exotic woods such as Jatoba and Bubinga. We believe these hardwoods represent the nautical and rustic look throughout the coastal towns on the South Shore.

The Anker Collection is our modern take on the basic kitchen board. We even spiced up the name: Anker. The collection also includes an edge-grain cutting board and a matching Cap Catch. Trust us, you’ll want one of each of these dark-wood products!

FAQs

Some common questions for designing an engraved gift

What should I engrave on a serving board?

For a simple engraving, we recommend one of four popular choices (1) large initial or monogram (2) last name (3) wedding date or (4) longitude and latitude coordinates of a special place.

What is the correct layout for a monogram

For a traditional monogram, with a larger center initial, follow the rules noted below.

  • Individual’s monogram = first, last, middle (for example, Carrie Pearl Smith = cSp)
  • Couple’s monogram = wife’s name, last name, husband’s name (for example, Caroline and Scott Miller = cMs)

Where can I find GPS coordinates of a physical address?

We like using Google Maps for GPS coordinates. Simply enter a physical address and right click on the red pin to view the DD (decimal degrees) coordinates. If you would like to use DMS (degrees, minutes, seconds) follow this formula.

Does food get stuck on an engraved charcuterie board?

We get this question a lot. Honestly, we have not had a problem with food getting stuck in the engraving. If bits of cheese do get wedged into the grooves of your engraved cutting board, we recommend using a soft bristle brush (an old toothbrush works great) to clean in between the grooves.

How do you treat wood cutting boards to make them food safe?

Our wood cutting boards are treating with mineral oil. Mineral oil is 100% food safe and great for conditioning wood. You can also use coconut oil as an alternative to mineral oil. General care instructions are given with your engraved cutting board. You can also find wood cutting board care instructions and a video on our website.

Tips & tricks for wood cutting board care?

Detailed wood cutting board care instructions are listed on our website, along with a YouTube video for reference. But generally, our recommendations are: (1) wash both sides of the board with soap/water (2) stand the board on its edge overnight to dry, and (3) condition all sides with mineral oil. Easy as 1-2-3!
