The Guitar Shaped Board is cut as a guitar - a serving and cheese board that works as a wall piece in a kitchen or bar area between uses. Mango wood is the practical choice for a board - dense enough to take daily knife work, soft enough not to blunt your blades, and a by-product of orchards that have stopped fruiting rather than timber grown for the purpose.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it meant for chopping or serving?

Serving, mainly - cheese, cold cuts, starters - where the shape is visible. It takes light chopping, but a shaped board gives you less usable flat surface than a plain one.

Is mango wood good for chopping?

Yes. It is a dense hardwood, firm enough to take daily knife work while still being gentle on blades - a board that is too hard blunts knives quickly, which is why hardwoods like mango are preferred over glass or stone.

How do I look after a mango wood board?

Hand wash in warm water with mild soap, rinse and dry it standing on edge so both faces dry evenly. Never soak it, never put it in a dishwasher, and rub food-grade mineral oil into it once a month - that is what stops a wooden board drying out and cracking in Indian summer heat.

Should I use the same board for vegetables and meat?

Keep separate boards, or use one face strictly for raw meat and fish and the other for vegetables and fruit. In a vegetarian or mixed household this matters more than anything else about board hygiene.

Does it work as a gift?

Wooden boards are among the more usable housewarming and wedding gifts - nothing to size, and they get used weekly rather than stored away. They are also a common pick for Diwali hampers.
