The Timeless Quality of English Sycamore
English Sycamore has long been regarded as one of the top three hardwoods for food preparation. Its fine, pale grain is naturally hygienic, resists absorbing food odours, and provides a smooth, forgiving surface that is kind to knives. The subtle colour palette, ranging from creamy whites to soft golden hues, ensures this chopping block looks stunning in both modern and traditional kitchens.
Each piece of Sycamore is unique, with natural knots and organic markings that bring individuality to every board. By choosing this block, you’re not only investing in a high-performance kitchen tool but also in a one-off artisan creation with its own character.

This butcher’s block sycamore chopping board Measuring 20 inches long, 15 inches wide, and 3 inches thick, is generously proportioned to accommodate everything from bread and vegetables to joints of meat. Its chunky depth ensures long-lasting strength and resistance to warping, while the rolled end top finish provides both comfort and convenience, making it easy to lift and move around the kitchen.
The live edge detail adds rustic authenticity, celebrating the natural contours of the timber and bringing an organic charm to your worktop or dining table. Whether you’re slicing, chopping, or preparing elaborate meals, this block offers a stable, reliable surface built to withstand years of use.
Artisan Finish & Food Safety
Every board is meticulously hand-sanded and polished to create a fine, tactile surface with a satin sheen. The block is then finished with multiple coats of food-safe oil and wax, preserving the timber, enhancing its natural beauty, and ensuring it remains safe for food contact.
This finishing process not only protects the wood but also highlights the Sycamore’s delicate grain structure, giving the chopping board a soft lustre that elevates it from a simple kitchen tool into a piece of functional art.
The Crystal Woods Trade Mark
