Personalisation Instructions
Every family kitchen carries its own traditions, which is why our workshop team approaches each commission with obsessive precision and focused care. Before our workshop laser engravers begin, we review every custom name, date, and lettering alignment by hand, carefully balancing typographic proportions across the timber surface. To customise your chopping board:
- Select Your Preferred Style Layout: Choose between Style Option 1, Style Option 2, or Style Option 3 to determine your preferred aesthetic arrangement.
- Select Top Line Font and Enter Text: Choose your top font and enter your formal opening wording, such as The, The Smiths, or your custom phrase. Note that this field is omitted for Option 2.
- Select Middle Line Font and Enter Text: Choose your primary font and enter your focal family surname, couple names like Charlotte and Ben, or individual monogram.
- Select Bottom Line Font and Enter Text: Choose your bottom font style and provide your special milestone year or phrase, such as Family Kitchen or EST 2026.
- Verify All Spelling Carefully: Please double check all names and dates carefully before submitting your order, as our studio engraves the exact text entered.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can we slice meat and chop vegetables directly on the engraved face?
To preserve the crisp details of your modern laser typography for future generations, we recommend using the smooth reverse side of the board for heavy kitchen knife chopping, reserving the engraved front face with its juice groove for light roast carving, table serving, and food presentation.
Is natural acacia timber safe for everyday food preparation?
Yes. Acacia is a dense, non porous hardwood naturally suited to kitchen use. We recommend seasoning your board before its first use with food safe mineral oil to nourish the timber grain and create a protective barrier against natural juices and cooking oils.
How should I store and maintain the board long term?
Store your board flat or standing upright in a well ventilated, dry space away from stoves or direct sun. Reapplying a light coat of food safe cutting board oil every few months keeps the timber grain nourished and protects against drying out.
