A cutting board made of Afromosia would be a sleek and elegant addition to any kitchen. Afrormosia, also known as African Teak, is a hardwood native to tropical Africa. It's prized for its beautiful golden to reddish-brown color and fine, straight grain.
Afromosia is highly regarded for its durability and resistance to wear and moisture, making it an excellent choice for cutting boards. Its tight grain structure helps to prevent bacteria from penetrating the surface, making it hygienic for food preparation.
In terms of aesthetics, Afromosia's warm tones and smooth texture lend an air of sophistication to the cutting board. The wood may exhibit natural variations in color and grain pattern, adding character and uniqueness to each piece.
Given its strength and resilience, a cutting board made of Afromosia would withstand the rigors of daily use in the kitchen. It would provide a sturdy and reliable surface for chopping, slicing, and dicing a variety of ingredients.
Overall, a cutting board crafted from Afromosia would not only be a functional tool but also a beautiful kitchen accessory that adds warmth and style to any culinary space.
Thickness is usually 1 inch or just a little over.
Every cutting board is finished with several coats of food safe mineral oil and a thin coat of bee's wax to bring out the natural beauty of the wood.
