I think that both the lidded cheeseboard and the ash elm platter are beautiful and very well made. The recipients of them are delighted with their gifts. Both items were extremely well packaged ensuring that they arrived undamaged. The items were delivered on different days so unsure if one item had got lost. I would have appreciated tracking which is a service I've been accustomed to and appreciate.
