"12 Moons" standing timber cutting board - Unique piece

In Rivière, master cabinetmaker Hervé Rouire blends the hues of different woods, introducing the softness of curves into the rigor of angles. Each rounded edge, cut with goldsmith-like precision, testifies to hours of patience and masterful craftsmanship. On the reverse, four corner feet ensure the board's impeccable stability on any flat surface.

Each plank is born here, crafted in France, nourished by local wood species. Sometimes, a few imported woods — Iroko, bamboo, wenge — come together to offer a rare nuance or an unexpected shade.

Its generous shape invites sharing: cheeses, cured meats, tapas… or anything else you can imagine. You can protect the wood by placing your food on lettuce or dried chestnut leaves, or opt for the elegance of a pre-carved presentation.

Crafted like a butcher's block, this board is ready to face everyday use. Specialized glues and waxes guarantee uncompromising food safety.

You can put it to the test… or contemplate it as you would a piece of art.

The secret of end-grain wood: cut perpendicular to the grain, it reveals the concentric circles of the tree's life cycle. Unique patterns, impossible to reproduce. This technique also gives it exceptional resistance to impact and wear—where traditional wood (grain-cut wood) splits.

That's why it's chosen for worktops, butcher blocks or high-end flooring: an alliance of professional solidity and raw beauty.
