Oiled alder wood chopping board – rectangular, 3 sizes

Your guests are already seated and the bread is sliced. All that's missing is a board to arrange cheese, ham and spreads on and serve them straight from it. This alder wood chopping board is made for exactly that. It's solid wood, finished with food-safe oil. Its warm colour makes any bread-and-cheese meal look more inviting. Use it as a breakfast board in the morning or as a cheese board in the evening. You cut, arrange and serve on one and the same board.

What changes for you

• Your table instantly looks more inviting without any fuss over decorations – because the natural grain of the alder wood speaks for itself.
• You cut and serve straight on the same board – thanks to the solid wood surface finished with food-safe oil.
• You'll find the right size for your needs – from a compact breakfast board to a large serving board for the buffet.
• You work on a sturdy surface that doesn't give – because the board is made in a solid 2 cm thickness.
• There's little to do after the meal – a damp cloth is all it takes to clean it.

Why this chopping board makes a difference every day

A board made of real wood brings a calm to the table that plastic can't match. Cheese, bread and cold cuts look lovingly presented on it. That's true even if you just laid the table in a hurry in the morning. The board handles everything from cutting to serving. So you don't need to switch between worktop and serving dishes. One less step, one tidier table.

Material & finish

The board is made of solid alder wood and finished with food-safe oil – so you can arrange bread, cheese or fruit directly on it without a second thought. The smooth surface with its natural wood texture feels pleasant in the hand and is neatly finished, made in the EU. As wood is a purely natural material, every board turns out slightly different: varying lighter tones, small knots and fine irregularities in the grain are all part of it – they're not flaws, but what makes each piece unique.

Good to know about alder wood

Alder wood is known for its warm, slightly reddish tone and its fine, even texture, and has long been a popular choice for furniture and household items. It's exactly this calm tone that makes it such a rewarding serving board: cheese, bread and fruit stand out nicely against it without the board itself stealing the show.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do: after use, simply wipe with a damp cloth and leave to dry. Please don't put it in the dishwasher – that way the oiled surface stays beautiful for longer and the solid wood keeps its shape.
