Description

Everything that makes end grain exceptional is framed in something even more beautiful.

Our framed end grain chopping boards take the butcher’s block construction of our classic end grain range and surround it with a solid hardwood frame — creating a board that is as visually striking as it is technically superb. Made entirely by hand in our Surrey Hills workshop from solid English oak and American Black Walnut, these are among the most impressive boards we produce.

The contrast between the chequered end grain centre and the long grain frame creates a board of real sophistication — something that looks extraordinary on a kitchen counter and works even better in practice. The end-grain surface remains kinder to knife blades than any flat-grain alternative, and the construction only improves with age and regular oiling.

Available with personalised engraving along the frame edge — names, initials, a date, or a carved motif — and with the option of a private message on the underside. Cutout handles and a surface juice groove are also available.

These boards are genuinely exceptional gifts. If you are looking for something to mark a significant occasion — a wedding, a milestone birthday, a landmark anniversary — a framed end-grain board is the kind of thing that is treasured rather than simply used.

All engravings are in capitals as standard; lower case available on request. Allow 7–10 working days.

Care Information

Finish: All our boards leave the workshop treated with multiple coats of our 100% natural, vegan-rated, food-safe chopping board oil — no solvents, no hardeners, just pure plant-based oils that are completely safe for food contact.

Aftercare: End-grain boards are thirsty — they absorb oil beautifully and benefit from regular treatment more than any other board type. We recommend re-oiling frequently with our food-safe chopping board oil, particularly in the first few months of use. This keeps the timber nourished and looking its best, and helps protect against staining, drying, cracking and warping. Our oil is available on the website.

Daily care: Always hand-wash with warm soapy water and dry immediately with a clean cloth — stand the board upright or prop it to allow both sides to dry evenly. Never put an end-grain board in the dishwasher. Avoid leaving moist foods sitting on the surface for extended periods. Keep away from direct heat, direct sunlight, and damp surfaces. Use the rubber feet supplied to allow airflow underneath.

About end grain timber: The exposed end grain fibres are what make these boards so special — knife blades pass between them rather than across them. But those same fibres will drink in moisture if the board is left wet. Dry your board thoroughly after every wash and oil it regularly. You may notice very fine hairline cracks over time; these are a natural characteristic of the timber and do not affect performance.

Do not store outside, in a garage, or in any space subject to damp or temperature extremes.
