This cutting board is longer and yet less wide than your average cutting board. These dimensions with the handle make it great for serving a baguette on but not limited to that. Cheese, charcuteries and the like are all presented beautifully on this board. The handle has a hole in it so that it can be stored conveniently. This hole also contributes to its function as a decorative piece as well—with engravings on the one side and hung up on the wall from the handle.
