To ensure your cutting board remains beautiful and stable in the long term, the right routine after use is crucial:

• Cleaning: Wipe the board with warm water and clean it without dish soap .
  
• Material: Use only a soft sponge or a soft cloth that can get wet.
  
  No brushes, no scouring pads, no steel wool. These materials will damage the surface.
  
• No soaking: Never leave the board in water . Instead: clean it briefly, and you're done.
  
• Proper drying: Afterwards , thoroughly dry the board and leave it to dry standing upright so that both sides get air evenly .
  

Once the board is completely dry and feels dry and slightly rough , it's the right time for maintenance:

Then you can treat it – depending on the desired finish – with one of our care products .

No. Absolutely not.

No. Absolutely not. A cycle in the dishwasher can permanently destroy a wooden board.

Here's what can actually happen in the dishwasher:

• Warping/curvature: Heat, steam, and prolonged periods of humidity cause wood to expand and contract unevenly. The result: the board becomes crooked and no longer lies flat.
  
• Cracks/Splits: Rapid changes between "wet-hot" and "dry-hot" stress the material. Cracks are not only unsightly – they often spell the end for a clean surface.
  
• Roughening & Greying: Cleaners and heat strip the wood of its natural oils. The surface becomes rough, looks “washed out” and quickly appears old.
  
• Glue joints can give way (delamination): In glued constructions, heat and moisture can weaken the bond – in the worst case, segments/joints open up.
  
• Hygiene gets worse, not better: cracks and crevices can trap moisture and residues – this can promote mold/mildew growth and is difficult to clean.

For those who want to keep their board flat , stable and looking good for years: Hand cleaning as described (warm, soft, short, dry immediately, leave to air standing up) – and as soon as the wood appears dry/rough, consistently care for it with our care products .

With us, you won’t find off-the-shelf chopping boards. Each of our boards is a genuine one-off, with its own unique story to tell.

What makes your board special:

• Unique grain: Wood is a living, natural product. The grain patterns, colour variations and textures are determined by the tree and are unique to every board.
• Hand-selected: We personally select every piece of wood, ensuring a harmonious appearance and maximum stability.
• Genuine craftsmanship: As we respect the natural character of the wood, no two boards are exactly alike.

A quick note for you:

The product images in the shop serve as a reference for the type of wood and construction. The grain and depth of colour of the board you receive may differ slightly from the photos. We believe that’s exactly what makes it so charming – you’re getting a product that’s one of a kind.
