{"product_id":"nalbari-medium-mango-wood-chopping-board-natural","title":"Nalbari Medium Mango Wood Chopping Board - Natural","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eA board 50cm long and 16cm wide, 2cm thick, with a shaped handle carried off one end. The face is a herringbone of wedge-shaped mango segments set point to point down the length, and the tones run from near-white through honey to a greenish brown, so the pattern is read by colour as much as by the joints. The long edge shows the ends of the same blocks in a row. A leather thong is knotted through a hole in the handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 50cm long and only 16cm wide this is the narrow one of the three Nalbari boards, and the proportion suits things laid in a row rather than heaped in the middle: charcuterie, a line of cheeses, bread cut into fingers. It does the chopping as well as the carrying. The handle keeps the hand clear of the food when the board goes to the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMango wood, built up from segments rather than sawn from a plank, which is where the colour change across the face comes from. The timber comes out of the fruit orchards: mango trees are grown for the crop and harvested over a number of years, and only when a tree stops bearing is it taken for wood, so the grower plants again and the same ground gives twice. The board is food safe and left natural, and its colour will move as it is used. This is the middle of the three Nalbari sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMango Wood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFood Safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.788kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does the colour vary across the board?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause it is built from segments of mango wood laid in a herringbone rather than cut from one plank.
