This one's built to be your everyday grab and go board. Big enough to handle real prep work, chopping veggies, breaking down a chicken, slicing bread, but still easy to lift and store when you're done. Cherry is a little softer than walnut, so it's gentle on your knife edge, and it's known for deepening in color over time, meaning the board only gets better looking the more you use it. Since it's cut from a single solid piece, it also doubles as a serving board when you've got people over, load it up with cheese, crackers, and charcuterie and it goes straight from the counter to the table. Handmade in Taylors, South Carolina American cherry hardwood Mineral oil finished and food safe Rounded edges for comfortable, safe handling Refresh with mineral oil or board butter as needed Board size - 14" x 9" x 1.25" Keep it out of the dishwasher. Soap, water, and a quick dry after each use is really all it needs. Every board is cut from real American cherry, so grain and color will vary piece to piece, and will continue to warm up with age and light exposure. That's not a flaw, that's the wood doing its thing, and it means the one you get is one of a kind.
