Designed in Detroit, Michigan

As married designers, nothing is off limits when it comes to creating new wares and products. We keep it modern, simple, functional, and fun. Ceramics are our passion. But, seriously. If we're not designing new wares we're turning over existing pieces in our hands, thinking of ways to make them better, more beautiful, more compelling. With 25 years in the ceramics industry, our aesthetic aims for modern homes, contemporary families, and design-forward minds. With a focus on tabletop ceramics and home goods, Lark’s mission is to provide contemporary wares of the highest quality made in the most capable, ethical production settings. A husband and wife design team, Kaitlyn and Ryan Lawless, our studio is based in Michigan. Lark is named after our family, an acronym that inspires us to take every design a little higher.

Available in 3 sizes:

• SMALL 5" diameter (12.5cm x 2.5cm)
• MEDIUM 6" diameter (15cm x 5cm)
• LARGE 7.5" diameter ( 19cm x 5cm)

FAQ:

How do I get the grated content out of the inside of the plate?
We can easily remove its content in different ways, we can do it with a kitchen brush (or even a toothbrush that we use for this purpose), we can do it by gently passing our finger and dragging the content out, we can dilute the grated content with a little oil or water to help us drag the grated food, or we can turn the plate over so that the content of the grated food falls out.

In the case of dry foods such as nutmeg, Parmesan cheese, almonds, or stale bread, it is best to grate these foods with the dry plate. In the case of garlic, you can pour a little oil on the plate and thus facilitate its removal and enjoy the garlic already mixed with the oil.

Presentation is everything, and this Italian Olivewood Board helps deliver the perfect presentation for charcuterie, cheese, desserts, and more. Featuring a lovely shape and smooth edge, this gorgeous handmade piece will be one you turn to any time you're entertaining.

Handmade heart-shaped breakfast board measures approximately:

6 1/2 x 8 x 3/4 inches (22x20x2 cm)

Due to the natural material and handcrafted nature of this product, the size and shape of each piece will have slight variations. No two are exactly alike.

CARE: Hand wash only, occasionally coat with olive oil or mineral oil to keep wood looking its best. Products made of olive wood are something very special and they stay that way if you take a little care of them. Hand wash the wooden utensil with water and a little dish soap, as needed. Then dry the wood well so that it does not get water stains. To keep the wonderful grain of the wood for a long time, simply rub the wood with a little olive oil from time to time. In this way, the wood remains supple and retains its good feel. Note: Do not wash Olive Wood in the dishwasher as this will fade the wood and make the product faded, rough, and brittle over time.

ABOUT: Crafted in Umbria, Italy, artisans use centuries-old tradition that produces unique pieces made from pure olive wood. The family preserves Italian history by using time-tested, hands-on techniques to craft heirloom-quality cookware as beautiful as it is functional. Made in Italy.

The perfect addition to your kitchen, this live edge cutting board is handcrafted from a solid slab of Oak. It has been sanded buttery smooth, and finished with a food-grade oil to protect and beautify. Our boards are solid wood, with no glue joints to eventually break. They will last a lifetime with proper care. Use as a cutting, serving, sandwich, or charcuterie board. 

Board measures: 20 1/2" by 16" by 1" thick.  
Sizes are approximate due to the natural edges. 

Handcrafted by Mutual Adoration in our women-run Detroit studio. 

Material Sourcing: 
Our live edge boards are sourced through a local tree service that uses logs from tree removal jobs around Metro-Detroit. Without commitment to conservation and sustainability, these logs would have been turned into mulch or firewood. Milling the trees into functional home products gives them another life phase. This one-tree-at-a-time process allows us to use the highest quality wood and a chance to create pieces with species that aren't usually seen at a local lumberyard. 

Care:

Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Do not allow to sit in standing water, or put in dishwasher. When the board starts to look dull, use a soft cloth to apply cutting board oil.

The coffee maker with percolatole is ideal for making the routine of those who love long coffee special Just insert the appropriate paper filter and wait for the hot water to do the rest!

Each ceramic is the result of extensive craftsmanship, has been fired twice at 980 degrees and is suitable for washing in the dishwasher.
