We are delighted to present our new range of British made carved chopping and presentation boards, hand crafted in British Oak. The entire process, from seasoning through selection, sawing, shaping, carving and oiling, results in each of our boards being totally unique, full of character and craftsmanship and quintessentially British.
The board has its own unique characteristics depending on the tree and the part of the tree it originates from. Some will have decorative medullary rays on the edges or one or more faces. These rays are formed from ribbon like groups of cells which conveyed sap through the trunk of the Oak, putting them the heart of the growing process. Others will have small knots which have formed naturally during the growth cycle of the tree. Each board will also have its own unique colouring depending on the age and life of the tree it originates from. All of these naturally occurring characteristics add to the individuality of your chopping board.
Wood has a natural tendency to curve with changes in humidity and the larger the surface area, the more prone the wood is to warping. Our round boards are made from two pieces of oak, carefully matched for grain pattern and colour and traditionally joined in opposing halves to create a natural tension within the board, minimising the risk of warping and cracking.
The board features a “Love Never Fails” design making it a perfect wedding or anniversary gift. The decorated board face is great for use as a presentation board when serving food. The other side of the board is left blank so it can be used as a chopping board.
