FAQs
Is the glass tempered for safety?
While specific details about tempering are not provided, glass chopping boards are typically made from durable, food-safe glass designed for kitchen use. Handle with care to avoid breakage.
Can I cut raw meat on this board?
Yes, the glass surface is non-porous and hygienic, making it suitable for cutting raw meat. It is easy to clean and sanitize after use.
Will this board damage my good knives?
Glass surfaces can dull knives faster than wood or plastic. For optimal knife care, use a lighter touch or consider using this board for less frequent or less demanding cutting tasks.
What are the exact dimensions of the board?
The dimensions of the board are 20cm in width, 28cm in length, and 1cm in thickness.
How should I clean the artwork without damaging it?
Clean the board with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch or degrade the artwork.
Can I put hot pans on this board?
No, this board is not designed to be used as a trivet. Extreme temperature changes can cause glass to break. Always use appropriate heat-resistant mats for hot pans.
Is this board dishwasher safe?
Hand washing is recommended to best preserve the artwork and the integrity of the glass. If you choose to use a dishwasher, place it on the top rack and use a gentle cycle.
Troubleshooting
Board feels slippery on the counter.
Ensure the countertop and the bottom of the board are completely dry. Consider placing a thin, damp cloth or a specialized non-slip mat underneath the board.
Artwork appears faded.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with recommended cleaning methods; abrasive cleaners can damage the artwork.
Minor scratches on the surface.
Light scratches are often cosmetic. Avoid using sharp knives with excessive force and do not use abrasive cleaning tools. For deeper scratches, consider replacing the board if it affects functionality.
Board chipped or cracked.
If the board has chipped or cracked, discontinue use immediately, as small fragments could enter food. Replace the board to ensure safety.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This chopping board requires no assembly. Simply remove it from its packaging and place it on a stable, dry countertop.
Compatibility:
- Knives: While compatible with most kitchen knives, prolonged use with very sharp or heavy-duty knives may lead to increased blade dulling compared to softer materials like wood or plastic. Using a lighter touch is recommended.
- Countertops: The glass surface is generally safe for most countertop materials. However, to prevent accidental slips, ensure the board is placed on a dry, flat surface. Consider using a non-slip mat underneath if your countertop is particularly smooth.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wash by hand with warm, soapy water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can scratch the glass surface. A soft sponge or cloth is recommended.
- Dishwasher: While potentially dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended to preserve the vibrancy of the artwork and the integrity of the glass over time. If using a dishwasher, place it on the top rack and use a gentle cycle.
- Handling: Avoid dropping the board or subjecting it to sudden impacts. Do not use it as a trivet for hot pans, as extreme temperature changes can cause breakage.
- Storage: Store flat in a dry place to prevent moisture build-up and potential scratches.
