Key Home Goods Unveils Limited Edition Cutting Board Collection: Where Functional Art Meets Heritage Craftsmanship
DALLAS, June 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Key Home Goods , a design-forward brand rooted in old-world craftsmanship and modern heritage, proudly announces the release of its Signature Collection, a limited-edition series of artisan-crafted end-grain cutting boards and designer charcuterie boards that merge timeless form with everyday function. Key Home Goods Signature Collection houndstooth cutting board. Each piece in the collection is meticulously handcrafted from American hardwoods, finished with a blend of food-safe oils and waxes, and showcases the brand's distinctive proprietary houndstooth patterns, a visual hallmark that has become synonymous with Key Home Goods. With production strictly limited, every board is reserved for those who seek beauty, exclusivity, and purpose in all that they do. At the heart of this launch is Andrew Key, a seventh-generation Texan, fine woodworker, and the founder of Key Home Goods. What began in 2019 as a pair of custom end-grain cutting boards made as wedding gifts for lifelong friends has grown into a full-fledged pursuit of heirloom craftsmanship. 'I never set out to start just another cutting board company,' says Andrew. 'I wanted to create something truly extraordinary, pieces to be cherished, passed down, and appreciated for both their function and elegance.' The Signature Collection represents more than kitchen tools; it's functional art, thoughtfully designed to elevate the rituals of cooking and gathering. Each board is book-matched for visual harmony, then assembled into a composition that's as structurally resilient as it is visually stunning, honoring the heritage of end-grain cutting boards while pioneering new ground in their design. 'Every board is made slowly, with intention,' Andrew explains. 'Owning a Key Home Goods board is an invitation to savor life's richest moments. A centerpiece for gatherings and a canvas for creating memories with those you love. No two are alike, but every one is designed to be the best board you'll ever own, and the last one you'll ever need.' The Signature Collection is available exclusively at , with early access to new releases offered to registered collectors. Each board ships in custom packaging and includes access to the brand's white-glove support and timeless warranty, known as the Timeless Guarantee.

Why Applied Optoelectronics Stock Skyrocketed Today
Applied Optoelectronics stock rocketed higher Friday thanks to new financing disclosures from the company. The tech specialist announced that one of its subsidiaries had taken on a new loan that was used to pay a previously existing loan. News of the refinancing move follows an announcement that the company recently made a major product shipment to a hyperscaler customer. 10 stocks we like better than Applied Optoelectronics › Applied Optoelectronics (NASDAQ: AAOI) stock soared higher again in Friday's trading. The tech specialist's share price rose 18.6% in the daily session despite a 0.2% decline for the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) and a 0.5% fall for the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC). Applied Optoelectronics' valuation surged today thanks to news that one of the company's subsidiaries had reworked previously existing debt agreements. The stock climbed roughly 39% over the last week of trading. After the market closed on Wednesday, Applied Optoelectronics submitted a filing to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) revealing two significant financing changes for its Global Technology subsidiary. Because the stock market was closed for the Juneteenth federal holiday on Thursday, the investor reaction to the new disclosures was pushed into today's trading. As per the filing with the SEC, Applied Optoelectronics' Global Technology has entered into a one-year credit agreement with China Construction Bank totaling 96.8 million Chinese renminbi -- which works out to roughly US$111.55 million based on the current exchange rate. Applied Optoelectronics said that the funding from the new agreement had been used to pay back other outstanding loans with Shanghai Pudong Development Bank. Despite this week's rally, Applied Optoelectronics stock is still down roughly 36% across the year due to uneven business performance and concerns about the company's financing. On the other hand, the company has recently announced significant shipments for its high-speed data center transceivers for a major data center customer. Along with some indications that the company could see an increase in demand powered by artificial intelligence (AI) initiatives from cloud hyperscaler customers, the recently announced financing moves suggest that the company has a found a near-term solution to some of its financing challenges.
