Size

This end grain butchers block is made from European Oak.  You can choose a size from the menu or I can make one to the exact size you wold like.  The boards are 4cm thick but again I can make a thicker one if you like.

 

It is very hard-wearing and can be used as a:

* chopping board,

* serving platter,

* charcuterie board,

* pizza slice board,

* cheese board,

* noodle board,

* outdoor oven serving platter, or

* a beautiful stove top cover

 

End grain wood boards make a perfect gift for the cook in your life, the foodie who enjoys presenting food beautifully, and the chef who demands only the best tools in their kitchen or for their outdoor wood fired oven.

 

End grain boards are very hard-wearing, kinder to your knives, and do not show scratches like other cutting boards do. They cost more because the process takes substantially longer than making a simple cutting board, which is basically a polished piece of wood. Whilst these can be beautiful, they are not as strong.

 

When I make an end grain board the process takes several days - first flattening the wood then slicing across the grain, rotating each piece before glueing them back together with very strong wood glue. There follows another round of flattening and sanding before I cut up the wood again to reveal the end grain, rejoining the pieces and sanding several times, before applying food safe mineral oil. Finally, the board is finished using my own blend of beeswax, made from local hives, and mineral oil to give a beautiful protective finish. I can make a board to meet your exact requirements - there are options in the menu but please feel free to message me with any specific questions.
