Know before you buy
Yes, the board is food contact safe. It is suitable for chopping vegetables, kneading dough, or serving appetizers.
To preserve the wood, avoid soaking it in water or putting it in the dishwasher. Periodically apply a food-grade mineral oil or beeswax conditioner to keep the wood hydrated and prevent cracking.
The authentic marks and texture are part of the board's history and character. While the surface is sturdy and functional, these natural indentations mean it is better suited for general chopping rather than precision tasks that require a perfectly smooth, level surface.
At one inch thick and 23 inches long, this board has a substantial weight that helps keep it stable on most countertops. If you find it slips, placing a damp kitchen towel underneath will provide extra grip.
Absolutely. Its rustic aesthetic and generous 23-inch length make it an excellent centerpiece for serving cheeses, breads, and charcuterie.
