This 11"x 14" steel chalkboard is crafted to a vintage finish. Best of all, the steel is 28 gauge and is highly magnetic. The chalkboard itself is called Lauzonite, a high-performance surface, made of a steel sheet coated with 4 layers of resin a carborandum baked on at a high temperature. The result is a smooth, easy-to-clean, flat-toned durable surface that ensures full, well-defined chalk lines visible from a distance. There is fifty-year warranty on under normal usage for the chalkboard surface. The vintage look is achieved by mounting the steel chalkboard on 1/8" thick stained hardboard, and embellished with black nails. You can choose to purchase the just the Steel chalkboard, or select our exclusive Small Chalkboard Shelf. Our 'Chalkboard Shelf' is perfect for those who wish to collect, display and swap out our various chalkboards. The chalkboards can be easily swapped out from the shelf. The shelf includes our signature chalk holder & is easily mounted to the wall by Keyhole slots on the back.
