FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which size is right for me?

S (14.2 × 9.4 in) is great for fruit, herbs, cheese and breakfast. M (15.7 × 11 in) is the everyday all-rounder. L (17.7 × 11.8 in, 1.2 in thick) is made for roasts, bread and big batches. Not sure? The Set of 3 covers everything.

What wood is it, and where is it made?

Solid walnut, glued up from end grain blocks. No veneer, no filler wood and no plastic coating. The dark color is the wood itself, and every board is unique.

Our boards are made by a partner workshop in China that specializes in end grain boards. We inspect every board before it ships: flatness, glue joints, the juice groove, the surface and the finish.

What is end grain and why does it matter?

On an end grain board the wood fibers stand upright, like the bristles of a brush. Your knife slips between the fibers instead of cutting across them, so the edge stays sharp longer and fine cut marks partly close back up.

How long does shipping take, and is it free?

Shipping is free to the US and the UK, no minimum. To the other countries we ship to, a flat shipping rate is shown at checkout. Delivery takes 6–10 business days, because every board is checked and freshly finished before it ships. You get a tracking link by email as soon as your order is on its way.

Will I have to pay customs or import duties?

US and UK: no. Duties are included in the price and your board is delivered to your door. In the US, sales tax is added at checkout where your state requires it. In the UK, VAT is already included in the price. Other countries: your local customs may charge import duties and taxes on delivery.

What if I don't love it?

Not in love with the wood or the color? Return your board unused and in its original packaging within 30 days of delivery for a full refund. Just email us your order number and we send you the return address. Return shipping is paid by the customer. For hygiene reasons, we can't accept boards that have been used.

What if it arrives damaged?

Send us a photo and your order number within 7 days of delivery. If your board arrived damaged or with a defect such as a crack or an open glue joint, we replace it free of charge, shipping included.

How do I care for it?

Hand wash only, never the dishwasher, and let it dry standing on its edge. Before the first use and about once a month, rub in a thin layer of beeswax board butter (free with M, L and the Set), let it sit for 20 minutes and buff off the rest. Deeper marks after years of use can be sanded out with fine sandpaper.

What's the free board butter for?

Orders with size M, L or the Set of 3 come with a free 80 g tin of beeswax board butter (one per order). Size S ships without it. It ships from our care-product partner, so it may arrive in a separate package. It seals and protects the wood: use it once before the first cut and then about once a month. When it runs out, any food-safe board oil or board wax works too.

Is wood hygienic, even for raw meat?

Yes, as long as you care for it: wash it with hot water and dish soap right after use and let it dry fully. Many cooks keep one board for meat and one for everything else, which is why the Set of 3 is popular.

What is the groove around the edge for?

The juice groove catches juices from steak, roasts, tomatoes or fruit, so they stay on the board and not on your counter.

Does the board have handles?

Yes. Each short side has a recessed finger grip, so you can lift the board easily, even when it is loaded.

Why does it look slightly different from the photos?

Every board is cut from natural wood, so grain pattern and color vary a little. That is part of the charm: no two boards are the same.

How heavy are the boards?

End grain walnut is dense, so the boards are solid and do not slide around while you cut. Size L is the heaviest and the most stable.

What is included in the Set of 3?

One board in each size, S, M and L, plus one tin of free beeswax board butter. It is the best value if you want a board for serving, everyday prep and carving.

Is there a discount for my first order?

Yes. Use code WELCOME10 at checkout for 10% off your first order. On top of that, all boards are at their introductory price until December 31.

All major credit cards and every payment option shown at checkout, including Shop Pay Installments where available. Checkout is encrypted and processed by Shopify.
