Rare Live Edge English Walnut Chopping Board / Charcuterie Board
Handcrafted Artisan Wooden Board – Functional Art for Kitchen & Dining
A One-of-a-Kind Piece of Functional Natural Art
This rare live edge English Walnut chopping board is both a practical kitchen tool and a striking piece of functional art. As the second and final piece in a rare pair of handcrafted boards, it offers something truly unique: a fusion of organic natural beauty and artisan craftsmanship. Once these boards are gone, they are gone, making this a collector’s item as much as a serving piece.
Designed to be versatile, it functions equally well as a chopping board for everyday use or a charcuterie board for entertaining, serving cheeses, breads, and cured meats in style.
The Natural Beauty of English Walnut
The surface of this handmade wooden board showcases the exceptional character of English Walnut, with warm golden hues accented by a dramatic streak of darker heartwood running boldly through the centre.
The flowing live edge retains bark inclusions and organic contours, celebrating the natural origins of the wood. A subtle wave along the surface adds sculptural depth, while rounded, rolled corners soften the form, creating a tactile and inviting finish that feels as good in the hand as it looks to the eye.
Rare and Limited Edition
This board is the second and final in a limited pair. Each was created from a rare slab of English Walnut, carefully selected for its unique grain and form. With no two alike, these pieces stand as true one-of-a-kind creations that elevate kitchenware into the realm of collectable art.
Craftsmanship and Finish
Handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, this artisan chopping board has been:
Sanded to a fine, smooth finish, highlighting every ripple and contour of the wood grain.
Treated with multiple coats of food-safe oil, creating a gentle satin sheen that both enhances colour and protects the surface.
Carefully shaped to retain its natural live edge detail, blending raw authenticity with refined functionality.
The result is a durable board that is as beautiful to display as it is to use.
Practicality and Kitchen Hygiene
English Walnut is prized not only for its beauty but also for its dense, tight grain structure, which naturally enhances food hygiene. Liquids, oils, and juices remain on the surface rather than soaking into the fibres, even as the oil finish wears with use.
This makes the board:
Easier to clean – a quick wipe restores its surface.
More resistant to bacteria – less absorption means better hygiene.
Durable over time – built to withstand years of food preparation and presentation.
Perfect for Serving and Entertaining
With its 1.25-inch thickness and sculptural live edge form, this board is ideal as a charcuterie board, serving platter, or kitchen centrepiece. Whether used for chopping, serving artisan breads, or presenting cheeses and cured meats, it brings a sense of natural elegance and sophistication to any occasion.
