Cutting Board Piano A

The CUTTING BOARD PIANO A is a compact food preparation surface designed for domestic kitchens and food service environments. Measuring 30.00 cm in width, 19.00 cm in depth, and standing at a height of 2.00 cm, this board provides a functional workspace for slicing, chopping, and dicing various ingredients. The total volume occupied by the product is 0.0010 m3, and it weighs 0.97 kg, making it substantial enough to remain stable during use while retaining portability for easy storage and cleaning.

Construction of the board relies on a combination of two distinct hardwoods: teak and sono wood. Teak is widely recognized for its high natural oil content, which contributes to moisture resistance and durability in humid kitchen environments. Sono wood, often referred to as rosewood, supplies a contrasting grain pattern and dense cellular structure, ensuring the surface withstands repetitive knife impacts without splintering rapidly. The visual presentation of the wood features a warm, deep tone achieved through the application of mineral oil. This mineral oil finish serves a dual purpose: it highlights the natural grain variations of the mixed hardwoods and saturates the pores to prevent the absorption of liquids, food odors, and bacteria.

The design of the model is designated as Piano, referencing the linear visual arrangement of the contrasting wood strips. This construction method involves joining alternating strips of teak and sono wood side by side using food-safe adhesives. Edge-grain or face-grain orientation is utilized to create a durable cutting plane that respects the sharpness of steel knife blades. Cutting on wood rather than synthetic materials like plastic or glass reduces blade dulling because the wood fibers yield slightly to the edge upon contact.

With a thickness of 2.00 cm, the board maintains structural rigidity across its 30.00 cm by 19.00 cm footprint, preventing warping over extended periods of exposure to water and fluctuating kitchen temperatures. The rectangular shape includes squared or softly radiused corners, depending on the specific finishing pass, maximizing the usable surface area for food preparation tasks. The 30 cm width accommodates standard chef knives and utility knives, providing adequate clearance for hand movement during repetitive chopping motions. The 19 cm depth allows the board to fit easily on standard countertops, kitchen islands, or over sink basins when paired with compatible sink ledges.

Maintenance of the CUTTING BOARD PIANO A requires hand washing with mild soap and warm water. Submerging the board in water or placing it inside a mechanical dishwasher will cause the wood to warp, crack, or delaminate due to excessive heat and moisture saturation. Regular reapplication of food-grade mineral oil is necessary to maintain the moisture barrier, prevent the wood from drying out, and preserve the deep coloration of the teak and sono wood combination. Storing the board upright on its side allows air to circulate freely around both faces, ensuring even drying after cleaning.
