The Brass Hold — Wood & Dhokra Serving Board

A single piece of unfinished wood, carved into a flat serving board with a hand-cast brass handle rising from the center. The handle is made using Dhokra — a lost-wax casting technique practiced in India for over 4,000 years — which means the metal has a rough, textured surface that looks like it was pulled from a mold, because it was. Pick it up by the handle to carry it to the table, or leave it flat and let the handle act as a visual anchor.

Use it as a cheese board, a serving tray for bread and charcuterie, or just leave it on the counter as a landing spot for fruit. The wood grain is visible and unfinished — each board has different figuring because each came from a different log. At 9 × 9 inches, it's sized for sharing, not for a full spread.
