Why choose a solid wood board?

From a practical standpoint, a wooden cutting board is the most natural, traditional, and kitchen-friendly product. Not only does it minimize knife dulling, but with minimal care, it can also be long-lasting. Wood inherently possesses antibacterial properties, but to maintain this, proper conditions and care for the board are essential.

Our boards are ready to use, meaning the wood surface is impregnated with a suitable food-grade oil and coated with a layer of oil-wax, providing additional protection against moisture. However, please note that this protection is periodic, and depending on usage intensity, the impregnation process should be repeated periodically – a home spa treatment for your board! 😊

Few words about wood:

Walnut wood is a hard species with a very distinctive grain pattern. What always catches the eye is its pronounced color. The light cream-colored sapwood contrasts sharply with the darker heartwood, sometimes even in shades of brown or bitter chocolate. Like in other hardwood species, the wood's coloration depends on the age of the tree and its habitat. Interestingly, those who work with this wood also know it for its characteristic peppery smell.

Benefits of walnut board:

Firstly - Durability.
Despite walnut not being as hard as oak, it is still a hard wood and highly resistant to mechanical damage (e.g., knife cuts).

Secondly - Aesthetic Appeal.
Walnut cutting boards are always recognizable 😊 As mentioned earlier, the contrast between the light cream color and the darker heartwood, along with its pastel hue, makes walnut designs striking. The wood grain pattern catches the eye, especially when juxtaposed against a light kitchen or living room environment.
