Why SLATED Won’t Do Black Friday

 

At SLATED, we don’t believe in fleeting discounts or disposable purchases.

Our pieces are cut from natural slate, crafted by hand, and designed to be kept forever. That takes time, intention, and a level of quality that doesn’t belong in a race to the bottom.

Black Friday encourages more, faster, cheaper.
We choose less, slower, better.

We don’t slash prices because we don’t inflate them. We don’t rush production because craftsmanship can’t be hurried. And we don’t create for one weekend—we create for decades.

Instead of temporary sales, we invest in:

  • honest pricing, every day.
  • small-batch production, made to last.
  • materials that are natural, timeless, and strong.
  • designs rooted in heritage and story.
  • customers who seek meaning, not impulse.

So while others discount for 24 hours, we craft for a lifetime.

No Black Friday. No throwaway gifting.
Just enduring craft and everyday value.

SLATED—made to stay.

 

 

US Tariffs

We want to share something important with you. Because of recent US government trade decisions, our products shipped to the U.S. will now have tariffs added. This isn’t something we control, and it’s certainly not a choice SLATED would ever make.

What we can control is how much we value and appreciate you. Our U.S. customers are a huge part of the SLATED family, and your loyalty means the world to us. We’ll keep doing everything we can to keep prices fair and continue delivering the quality and care you expect from us.

Thank you for standing with us—we’re so grateful to have you here, Tara and Ed.

Irish Cheese Awards 2024

SLATED was thrilled when Cáis, the Irish Cheesemakers, returned to us in 2024 to design their prestigious Irish cheese awards 2024, once again. Creating awards for Ireland’s finest cheesemakers is more than a project—it’s a celebration of craft, tradition, and excellence that we hold close to our hearts.

Each piece we design is a tribute to the artistry that Cáis represents. Handcrafted from rich, natural slate, these awards mirror the authenticity and dedication that define Irish cheesemaking. To have our work honour such exceptional craftsmanship is a privilege, and we’re deeply proud to be part of this tradition once more.
