J Adams 10-Inch Laser-Engraved Hardwood Dinner Plate Cow Design Description
Smart forestry practices and charming aesthetics come together in the J.K. Adams collection of engraved farm animal plates. Priding itself on its certification from the Forestry Stewardship Council, the company harvests the wood for the plates from responsibly managed forests. Each piece is then laser-engraved and hand-sanded for a result that guarantees smiles and lasts for years. In a set, the pieces have a lively rural style with an elegant earthiness to their design. They are great for collectors, kids, and entertainers who prefer fun to formality. For added reassurance, J.K. Adams includes a 5-year warranty against defects.
An iconic country image, the cow on this J.K. Adams plate adds a low-key playfulness to grilled cheese sandwiches and juicy hamburgers. Crafted from Vermont maple, the piece measures 10 inches in diameter with a broad, rounded border. It coordinates with the collection's duck, pig, and rooster plates, and should be washed by hand for best care.
Environmental Responsibilities
J.K. Adams purchases lumber from a select few suppliers who we are confident practice sustainable forestry practices. In 09, J.K. Adams became the first manufacturer of our type of products to become certified by the FSC--the Forest Stewardship Council, which is the main authority in Europe and the United States for promoting the responsible management of the world's forests. The FSC brings credibility to the term "green," which is why so few companies are certified and can pass the auditing and certification process.
Why Choose a Wood Cutting Board?
Wood is naturally anti-bacterial, and any bacteria left on the boar will actually lessen in time versus multiplying on a plastic cutting board. A wooden board will also be more gentle on your knife's edge, and it just feels and sounds better under a knife.
Caring for Your J.K. Adams Cutting Board
Wash by hand in warm soapy water and dry thoroughly, and oil frequently with mineral oil to help give it an optimal appearance. Do not soak, microwave, freeze, or put in the dishwasher. For removing stains, you can use a weak bleach-and-water solution or a combination of lemon juice and salt. Be sure to rinse and wipe with mineral oil afterward. Additionally, the surface can be sanded to make the board look like new--although a board with wear will add character to your kitchen. For storage, keep the board away from strong sunlight as avoiding UV rays will reduce the risk of fading.
J.K. Adams: Over 65 Years of New England Yankee Craftsmanship
Some of the world's finest woodworkers can be found in New England. The rich heritage and folk lure of the great Yankee Woodworker is as well known today as it was hundreds of years ago, and the craft has been handed down through the generations. J.K. Adams success is certainly attributable to the early Vermonters employed by the company while in its infancy who brought forth the techniques and quality craftsmanship that could only come from generations of shared knowledge and experience.
The J.K. Adams factory has been at the same location since the beginning. As many as three generations of families have relied on J.K. Adams to provide for their families. Located in a rural area of Vermont, J.K. Adams remains one of the largest employers in the area and is an important pillar of support for our local community.
J.K. Adams has always used the creativity and skill of their workforce in developing new products, and today J.K. Adams continues its New England craftsmanship with a wide variety of cutting boards as well as wooden salad bowls, kitchen islands, and slate serving trays. And at the J.K. Adams factory, you'll find future generations of woodworkers building upon the traditions begun over 65 years ago.
Cutting boards and other products made by J.K Adams are manufactured in the USA.
About J.K. Adams' Logo
In colonial New England, three strokes of a broad ax were used to mark the finest treest in the forest for the Queens' Navy shipmasts. The broad arrow was adopted as our logo because it symbolizes the exceptional quality of wood that goes into our products.
