Refurbishing Your Old Boards
Whether you have one of our boards or one that was a gift, we can make that board look as close to new as possible.
Purchasing Products
Wood is typically heavy so postage, packaging, and insurance all increase the base price!
Kitchen items are very individualized. Every person’s hand size and grip strength are different, so touching our products is encouraged. Besides our kitchen tools and gift items, our wooden boards remain the most popular items shipped for very special occasions. They are always GREAT gifts.
We want to ensure that each item you purchase meets your satisfaction (whether in stock or custom).
Our products are picked up locally and shipped throughout the USA, and worldwide.

Email us your address, and a high-resolution picture of your cutting board so we can determine the board's condition.
Please also include the dimensions, weight, and thickness of your cutting board. We will respond within 1- business days or sooner.

First, we sand out as much of your old cuts and dings as possible, while preserving the integrity of your board.
Your board is sanded in a 5 step process. Typically, starting at 40 grit and increasing progressively to a new high gloss surface. We oil your board with high-quality food-grade mineral oil and once the oil has been absorbed into the wood, we repeat the process twice more. Finally, we rub off any excess oil and tie a ribbon on it to say thank you! We carefully wrap it up, pad it, box it, and ship it way to you.
Note: In the rare case that your board breaks or cracks while being refurbished, we will repair or replace your board at no additional cost to you.
Once we receive your board, we typically can return it to you totally refurbished within 7-10 business days or sooner.
Andrew has worked on a lot of different projects for our family over the years. One of them in particular is quite memorable. My Mom had a pasta board that my Dad had made for her a LONG time ago. When she passed away we acquired it. Since Andrew had already made us a pasta board of our own which we loved, we had him refinish my Mom's so we could pass it down to one of our granddaughters. A story with a very happy ending, as you would have thought when he was done with it that it was brand new.

Framingham, MAI purchased a Charcuterie Board from the WoodenBoard last Winter. Andrew was extremely knowledgeable about types of wood, had wonderful ideas about the different uses of the board, and was delightful to work with. I had a definite idea in mind. I wanted a board that could accommodate anywhere from 6 people per occasion up to 12 people per occasion. Andrew came through!! He designed a Cherry board that is 34" x 11". This has come in handy when we have had brunch for 6-8 people for bagels, lox, cream cheese, etc. as well as an appetizer board for 12 with crackers, cheeses, veggies, etc. The beauty of my board is that everything can be served on one amazing piece of wood and creates a beautiful warm presentation!

Newton, MAAndrew's pieces are truly one of a kind! We have purchased a few of his pieces over the years and they are all equally functional and beautiful! The craftsmanship and attention to detail are always on point. There is no question about the amount of love that goes into every piece he designs.

Brooklyn, NYI recently moved and wanted to add some unique and beautiful objects to my new home. I found "The Wooden Board" on the web and was immediately intrigued and attracted to what I viewed. I placed my orders and was overjoyed once they arrived. True artistic creations. The happy surprise was not only for the items themselves but also for the exquisite way they were created, lovingly no doubt. The rich auburn wood polished to a velvety touch, the veins placed just at the right angle to enhance the beauty of each piece were definite proof of the artwork to be cherished and to be used with great enjoyment. I would encourage anyone to go to the site, admire the different offerings and let themselves be conquered by what they see.

New York City & Bienne, SwitzerlandI have purchased many unique products from The Wooden Board for myself and as gifts for family and friends. It’s hard to say which utensil I like most because I use all—spatulas, spreaders, toast tongs, and push pulls. It’s always a pleasure to have friends figure out what a toast tong or a push-pull is and then watch their delight when using their unique piece. I have a pig board I use occasionally as it’s just too special for everyday use; sorry, Andrew. I gave a beautiful cheese board to my daughter as a Christmas present and she loves using it when entertaining. The Wooden Board is a great resource for beautiful and unique kitchen products.

I’ve purchased several pieces from The Wooden Board I couldn’t be happier! The quality and workmanship are second to none. If you are looking for authentic handmade pieces for gifts then this is the place to go! I love the flower holder! I have had more people ask where did I get this... I have also really loved the pinch bowls, I have one I use all the time during meal prep. The other is by my nightstand for my earrings and rings. Whatever you get I know you will love it!!
