Designed and produced in our Hudson Valley, New York studio, each board moves fluidly from kitchen prep to entertaining — a single piece that works as a cheese board, charcuterie platter, bread board, or everyday cutting surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAvailable in three sizes to fit the way you cook, serve, and entertain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid kiln-dried American ash, ebonized through iron-and-tannin reaction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-sanded and sealed with our food-safe oil and wax blend\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Original egg-inspired silhouette with built-in hanging hole for vertical storage or wall display\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.75\" across all sizes for stable cutting and generous serving surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed and produced start-to-finish in our Hudson Valley, NY studio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions \u0026amp; Best Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall — 16\" L × 11\" W × 0.75\" H:\u003c\/strong\u003e Prep board, snack platter, single-serve cheese and fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedium — 18.25\" L × 13.25\" W × 0.75\" H:\u003c\/strong\u003e Our most versatile size; daily chopping, dinner-for-two cheese and charcuterie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLarge — 22\" L × 15\" W × 0.75\" H:\u003c\/strong\u003e Statement serving board for gatherings, holiday spreads, grazing tables, and full meal prep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eHand wash with mild soap and warm water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eTowel dry immediately after washing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDo not soak or place in the dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eRe-oil every 4–6 weeks with a food-safe board oil or board cream\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eAvoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to preserve color depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eCan I cut on an ebonized board, or is it for serving only?\u003c\/em\u003e Both. This is a true cutting board built from solid 0.75\" hardwood. Knife marks will lightly distress the surface over time, which most customers find adds character; the board can be sanded and re-oiled to refresh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eWill the black fade?\u003c\/em\u003e The ebonized finish is permanent because it's a chemical reaction, not a surface coating. Color depth may soften slightly over years of use and oiling, contributing to the patina.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eHow is this different from a painted or stained black cutting board?\u003c\/em\u003e Paint and stain sit on top of the wood and can chip, scratch, or leach. Ebonizing is a reaction that occurs throughout the wood's surface layer, so the color cannot flake off onto food.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhere are KHEM boards made?\u003c\/em\u003e Every board is designed and produced in our studio in Stanfordville, New York, in the Hudson Valley.

Because we work in solid American hardwood and use a reactive finishing process, variations in grain pattern, tone, and the way the ebonizing interacts with each board's figure are expected and celebrated.
