Timber That Tells a Story

Every wooden chopping board we make has a story. The grain, the colour, the texture—each piece is as unique as a fingerprint. That’s the beauty of solid timber.

Our boards are crafted from sustainably sourced hardwoods like:

  • American White Oak 🍂
  • Spotted Gum 🌳
  • Blackbutt 🌿
  • American Walnut 🍫

These timbers aren’t just stunning—they’re tough, naturally antibacterial, and made to handle anything you throw at them (literally).
