Brooklyn Slate Company was founded by Brooklyn graphic designer Sean Tice and Parsons graduate student Kristy Hadeka. It all started in 2009. A 3rd generation family quarry, unused slate remnants and a couple of kids living it up in Brooklyn. Fast forward to today and Brooklyn Slate Co. boards can be found across the country and around the globe. Proud to be one of the largest purveyors of American made slate products, Brooklyn Slate continues its tradition of crafting fine pieces of table top ware and accessories to fit all of your entertaining needs. We are passionate about gathering friends, family, and loved ones around the table to share a meal in style.Brooklyn Slate is sourced from the exquisite New York/Vermont Slate Valley. We are proud partners with Progress Industries, a division of The Arc, Oneida-Lewis, a non-profit organization providing support for people with developmental disabilities, where our slate is washed, sealed, wrapped, and packed.
