TIMBERMADE Butcher Block

The scalloped edge is primarily an aesthetic design choice, adding a sculptural, organic look to your kitchen. However, the curves can also make it slightly easier to grip the board when moving it from the counter to the table.

No, this board is not dishwasher safe. Natural wood can warp, crack, or split when exposed to the high heat and moisture cycles of a dishwasher; we recommend hand-washing it with mild soap and drying it immediately.

Since it arrives finished with food-grade oil and wax, you should periodically re-apply a food-safe mineral oil or wood conditioner whenever the wood starts to look dry or dull. This will keep the hickory hydrated and prevent it from absorbing moisture or food odors.

The 10-inch size is compact, making it perfect for an intimate charcuterie board for two or three people, or for serving a single artisanal cheese or loaf of bread. If you are planning to host larger groups, you may find it a bit small for an extensive spread.

Hickory is a very dense, hard wood, which makes it an excellent, durable surface for cutting. While you will inevitably see light knife marks over time with regular use, this is normal for any high-quality wooden cutting board and adds to its character.
