Christopher Collection French Rolling Pin

Yes, this piece is considered food safe. However, because it is a 19th-century antique, we recommend cleaning it gently with a damp cloth and food-grade mineral oil rather than submerging it in water.

Never put this rolling pin in the dishwasher, as the heat and moisture will crack the aged wood. Simply wipe it down with a damp cloth after use and occasionally apply a food-safe wood conditioner to keep the timber from drying out.

The French tapered design lacks handles, which provides better tactile feedback and control when rolling out delicate doughs. It allows for a more intuitive feel, making it easier to achieve an even thickness.

The surface is well-worn and smooth from decades of use, but it retains the natural character and slight imperfections expected of 19th-century wood. These marks are part of its history and do not interfere with its functionality.

This piece is crafted from solid wood, giving it a substantial weight and durability that hollow rolling pins lack. This heft makes it particularly effective for rolling out stiffer doughs.
