Premium Large Wooden Cutting Board

Villa Acacia's premium acacia wooden cutting boards are a delight to use and to look at. Measuring 17 x 12 inches, this large cutting board is a perfect fit for all of your every day tasks, yet is easy to clean and store after using.

Showcasing the beautiful natural color of Acacia, these boards add a natural charm to the kitchen and enhance the cooking experience. Buy it for yourself as a treat or give as a gift that will be surely appreciated!

Villa Acacia Means Quality

How is nearly every single Villa Acacia item so highly rated? Our secret is years of expertise in woodworking, which is why our boards feature full length strips of properly dried wood that is carefully glued and set. We do not cut corners by using random wood scraps that are thin and uneven, nor do we use wide strips that are likely to warp. Our boards are a consistent look and showcase full grain. While this increases our cost due to rejecting wood with excess knots or sap, we pride ourselves on craftsmanship.

Large and Practical Size

Easily cut, chop, slice and whip up everything from farm fresh salads to steak tacos without feeling squeezed for space. The light weight board is a breeze to handle and wash. While the 17 inch board neatly fits into drawers or cabinets, it can easily be left out to enhance the look of your kitchen.

Reversible Sides for Cutting and Serving

Easily turn your cutting board into an attractive serving board for cheese, fruit and bread with a simple flip. The reversible surface means one side can be used for cutting while the other is for presentation. Or simply cut on both sides to get double the mileage out of your cutting board!

User questions & answers

Question:	What’s the best oil you recommend
Answer:	I use Boos Block Mystery Oil, and Boos Block Board Cream. They work great, and I absolutely love the Sonder Reversible Cutting Board!
Question:	What's the best way to store this board
Answer:	The best way to store this board, if you have the counter space, is standing up on your counter. You can lean it on a wall or on your backsplash. If you do not have the counter space to store it, it is very important to make sure you completely dry the board with a clean kitchen towel after washing and then let it air dry for a few hours prior to storing it inside a cabinet or pantry space. Because wood does absorb water and moisture, keeping it in an open area with airflow is best to make sure the board does not maintain any moisture which can lead to bacteria growth.
Question:	Is this actually made in the U.S
Answer:	This is made in China. I found it on alibaba for $12 each if you buy a pallet of 500. I doubt seller designed it unless designing it is by choosing it on alibaba and then put their logo on it. In fact, you can find all this seller's cutting boards on alibaba for $8-14 each on alibaba. There's nothing wrong with buying stuff from China and resell it because that's pretty much everything in the US. I just think marketing is a bit misleading because it makes you think you are getting something unique and made in the US. But it's really not and very easy to prove.
Question:	How do you take care of it? All our wood boards in the past end up smelling overtime. Is there a good, non-toxic product to treat the wood
Answer:	Hi Gabe! Thanks for your interest in our Motley Cutting Board. The board needs to be washed with soap and warm water after each use, then towel dried. You should also stand the board up to make sure it is evenly dried and no moisture is left sitting between the large cutting surface and your countertops. Lemon is also recommended to clean the with occasionally if you're using the board to prepare food with strong scents such as fish! Most importantly, all wood cutting boards will require regular oiling (we recommend a food grade mineral old). Regular oiling depends on how frequent you use the board. If you use the board several times a week, oiling once a month is highly recommended. If you use the board less then once every few months. Basically, as soon as your board looks dry, you should oil it! By the way, all of our products include step by step cleaning and care instructions and we're also very easy to reach should you have any questions after you purchase the board! We are a small Los Angeles business and we appreciate your interest and support! Thank you! - Tiffany, Co-Founder/Designer

User questions & answers

Question:	Is it made in the usa or is it made in china? the responses are very contradicting
Answer:	Hello! Edge Grain means that the maple rails are laid down edges up (resulting in a linear pattern) during construction. The other type is "End Grain" meaning board pieces are laid on end. Thanks! John Boos and Co
Question:	Is the maple end grain
Answer:	Hello, Boos Boards and Blocks are formaldehyde free Thanks, John Boos and Co
Question:	Can you provide more information about caring for the board? Does it come pre-seasoned and how often does it need to be conditioned
Answer:	Hello Ms Wenzel, Well, we have to say you stumped us on this one! This board is made from Maple Wood with an all- natural oil finish. Have you owned the board for awhile? Did you purchase it from Amazon or from a third party seller here on Amazon? Have you used other oil products on it? We do know that when people use food based oils (coconut, olive oil- both not recommended), they could potentially go rancid, which would lead to an unpleasant smell. If that perhaps is the case, we recommend the following: Wash your John Boos cutting board with hot soapy water or rinse with a vinegar or chlorine bleach solution. (1 teaspoon bleach to one quart of water/5-to-1 ratio of vinegar to water) Do not soak the board in water, this will damage the wood. Like all natural wood cutting boards, John Boos boards are not intended for the dishwasher. Use John Boos Mystery oil (sold here on Amazon) to moisturize and protect the board when it is dry. Repeat oil every month, or more often if the board is new or you live in a dry climate. These quick steps will ensure this board is a constant companion for years to come! Please do write us back if you have further questions. We are curious to hear about a resolution! Sincerely, John Boos and Co
Question:	How deep is the juice groove around the edge
Answer:	The actual name of the product is Boos Block Board Cream. It is marketed on the tube as, "Natural Moisturizer for All Types of Wood". The listed ingredients are Natural Unbleached Bee's Wax and Food Grade Mineral Oil. I use the product roughly once a week to moisturize the wood after first wiping the board down with a water soaked cloth. The entire board requires roughly one teaspoon of product on a cloth to moisturize the entire surface.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this board made by glue small pieces together
Answer:	Best I can tell, this is a solid piece of Acaia wood. Although with advancements in laminated wood working, who knows.
Question:	Why not cut raw meat on it? That was my sole purpose of purchase

The History of John Boos & Co

In 1887, Effingham, Illinois blacksmith Conrad Boos used a Sycamore tree placed on three legs while hammering horseshoes. Three years later, a local butcher realized a wooden Boos Block could be used for cutting meat, and had one custom made. Word spread to surrounding small towns and cities and by 1911, John Boos & Co was shipping custom butcher blocks from coast to coast. Throughout the 20’s, 30’s and 40’s, John Boos expanded their production and product range to include tables and workbenches, the majority of which went to the war effort during WWII. By the 1940s, John Boos had earned their outstanding reputation for quality and craftsmanship, and John Boos butcher blocks were found in every restaurant, food store and butcher shop in America. Today, the traditional craftsmen work ethic is still alive and well at John Boos, where all boards and butcher blocks are still proudly manufactured in Effingham, Illinois. Often imitated, John Boos boards and blocks are favorites of professional chefs and can be found in restaurants and commercial settings worldwide.

Individual trees are selected for harvest, encouraging forests to renew and regenerate themselves naturally and prolifically. John Boos & Co. recycles 95% of all raw lumber scraps and sawdust which are used to generate electricity and create steam to fuel the boilers.

Care and Maintenance

Keeping Your Board Sanitized:

(1 teaspoon bleach to one quart of water/5-to-1 ratio of vinegar to water) Do not soak the board in water, this will damage the wood. Like all natural wood cutting boards, John Boos boards are not intended for the dishwasher.

Maintaining Your Board:
