Ginkgo Glass Dome Cheese Server on Oval Marble Base

A clear glass dome on a marble base, to cover cheese or pastries and present them like a display.

Ginkgo is a cheese and dessert server with an oval white marble base, a clear glass dome with a small round knob, and gold-tone ball feet. The dome keeps cheese, pastries or small desserts covered, and the marble keeps them looking cool and fresh on a counter or buffet.

At 11 inches wide, 6 inches deep and 8.5 inches high, it fits a brunch buffet, a cheese course or a cafe counter. The clear dome and white stone suit modern, transitional and glam rooms, and the gold feet add a quiet accent.

Planning notes

Lift the dome by the knob and rest it on the table or a trivet while you serve. The base is stone and has some weight, so place it on a stable surface.

Because the dome is glass, handle it with both hands when moving the set. Pair it with a wooden board and cheese knives, or a cake knife for dessert. Natural marble varies, so each base will have its own veining. For hospitality use, a pair of domes on a buffet lets you offer two choices at once. At a brunch buffet, set one dome with pastries and a second with cheese and fruit. Keep the dome handy on a small plate while you serve so it does not roll or chip. On a cafe counter, the clear glass lets guests see what is inside without lifting the cover.

Who this is not for

• Not for outdoor use: we recommend it for indoor rooms.
• Not a place for acidic spills: lemon, wine and vinegar can dull polished stone, so wipe up quickly.

Care

Hand wash gently with mild soap and warm water, then dry with a soft cloth. Avoid sudden temperature changes.
