Guatemalan Hardwood Serving & Cutting Board

Guatemalan hardwood shaped for preparation and serving

This handcrafted wood board brings the natural grain and distinctive coloring of Guatemala’s tropical hardwoods into the kitchen. Its broad rectangular surface works equally well for food preparation, cheese and charcuterie, or serving bread and appetizers at the table. Available in warm Mahogany or pale Blonde Cedar, each board has its own pattern of grain, knots, and tonal movement.

Wood Options

Mahogany: Warm reddish-brown coloring and pronounced grain give this version a rich, substantial appearance.
Blonde Cedar: Pale ivory and honey tones create a lighter surface with fine, understated grain.
Natural Variation: Differences in color, grain pattern, knots, and tonal movement make every board distinct.

Craft & Origin

Handmade in Guatemala: Local carpenters in the Petén region shape, cure, sand, and finish each board by hand.
Responsibly Harvested Wood: The tropical hardwood is locally sourced through responsible forestry practices intended to protect the surrounding jungle and its biodiversity.
Leather Loop: A hanging loop at one corner provides convenient storage and adds a contrasting material detail.
Versatile Construction: The half-inch-thick profile offers a practical surface for both cutting and serving.

Serving & Preparation

Cheese and Charcuterie: Arrange cheeses, cured meats, fruit, nuts, and crackers across the broad surface.
Kitchen Prep: Use for slicing bread, fruit, herbs, and other everyday ingredients.
Table Service: Carry appetizers, sliced bread, or small bites directly from the kitchen to the table.
Hanging Storage: Display from a wall hook where the wood grain remains visible between uses.
