Steamed Cherry Wood Cutting Board

These chopping boards are suitable for cutting, presenting and serving food. Whether you prepare a meal for one or more than one, all the ingredients for a hearty meal will fit on the board. The medium-sized one is also well suited for use at the table instead of a plate: there is even room for the cutlery on it. The large one serves bread, cheese, ham or sandwiches for a snack buffet. The curved edges of each board are milled manually and are carefully made to fit in the palm: serving even a loaded board bears no risk to drop the valued freight. Made in Solingen.

These chopping boards are hewn from the solid wood of the cherry tree; they are made of one piece of wood (the usual standard is to glue several parts together). Carefully chosen, the solid material meets all necessary quality criteria: After drying, the wood is steamed to remove tanning agents and increase its stability. Besides the steaming gives the wood a much warmer dark red colour than one usually expects from cherry wood and makes its delicate wood grain more visible. Each chopping board is manufactured by free-form cutting, sanded smooth by hand, and then well oiled. Due to the whole process, the boards are remarkably stable in shape.
