Teakhaus Cutting Board 45,7x5 cm Round, Wood, Brown, 45.7 x 45.7 x 5 cm

I replaced an old butcher block that split after many years of use. I have been seasoning this new one with mineral oil as recommended. It is really useful and so attractive. Very pleased with my purchase....it is quite heavy, but I like that.

1週間程度早めに届きました。海外からだったので心配でしたが、梱包もしっかりしていました。画像で見るともう少し艶のある色をしていたのですが、自宅にある食用オリーブオイルでまな板をよく拭いて艶を自分で出しました。画像のような色合いになりました。他のところより値段がお安かったのでとても気に入っています。

Well, fast forward two and a half years, I just realized that the board must be OILED!!! NOW it looks like the picture that sold me on the sale!! (see before and after pics below) I still just use it as a decoration, but it is very heavy and really dresses up a table!Before my discovery, I wrote:Although is is probably solid teak, the surface is not as dramatically colored as the picture. In fact, it is kind of a uniform light brown and the pattern LOOKS like it is printed on, although they say it is the actual end grain.The board IS heavy, but I cannot comment on how it stands up as a cutting board since I am only using it as a decoration.

This is a very nice piece of craftsmanship. Beautiful and functional. Upon arrival the surface was smooth as silk. I enjoyed just rubbing my hand across it.In its original state the board was a mottled combination of squares in light grays, blacks and browns. Upon oiling, which is periodically necessary on these, the color changed to rich earthtones, as depicted on the Amazon site for this product.The first photo shows the board right out of the box. The second shows the oiled board on my oak table, which I oiled at the same time. The color change of the board (and the table) is remarkable. These photos have not been doctored in any way.I've found Catskill's Butcher Block Oil to be very useful.
