Outstanding, hand-carved wooden breadboards in as-found, untouched condition! Rich, warm coloring and wonderful wear patterns make each of these a one-of-a-kind, 19th Century piece. The dimensions vary a bit depending on where they are taken due to their primitive nature. These make wonderful wall decorations for country kitchens and can also serve as part of a centerpiece on farm tables. It's important to note that these are original, antique boards that were hand made for use as kitchen boards, whether they be bread or cheese. They are NOT newly made from old wood and/or artificially aged.

These truly gorgeous breadboards derive their beauty not only from their primitive handmade origin, but also because of their imperfections. Each is unique and might show visible wear, stains, grooves, tight cracks, small missing pieces, blackening, and grunge from years of use generations ago. Every sign of age and use tells a story. We are offering these for wall and table decor and don't recommend use or direct contact with food unless cleaned and treated with mineral oil first. Oiling them up brings out warmer coloring and enhances the graining. We offer them in as-found, untouched condition. Dirty and dusty, they spent generations in forgotten storage. You won't be disappointed in these! They are hard to find and won't last long! $95 each. Multiples can be shipped together, and excess shipping funds will be refunded.
