Lambert Heart Camphor Laurel Carver

At last!

A real Aussie carver with heart!

This is the board we just had to make – as big as our wide brown land; deep juice channels on all 4 sides; integrated handles; a unique heart shaped juice well to collect all those beautiful liquids and even a built-in pourer to avoid spills on the way to your gravy boat or server.

Isn’t it a beauty?

This board is proudly named after the little known “Lambert Centre” (25º36’36.”4S and 134º21’17.”3E) located approximately 200km south of Alice Springs – the geographic centre of Australia!

Made from a single piece of Australian camphor laurel timber, the Lambert Heart Carver is designed by and exclusive to www.woodenchoppingboards.com.au and makes the perfect gift for weddings, anniversaries, house warmings or for any real “meat lover”!

We think this is our best yet.

Aussie camphor laurel combined with contrasting red gum handles for stability and structure. A sustainable timber resource with natural anti-bacterial properties and a unique design.

Bega Valley Cheese Board

Those great Australian cheeses from the Bega Valley deserved to be sliced on and served from an equally great Australian product.

Our Bega Valley Cheese Boards are crafted from one piece of 100% Australian honey-coloured Camphor Laurel wood and are manufactured on the North Coast of New South Wales.

Naturally aromatic and anti-bacterial, our Bega Valley Cheese Board looks great, smells good and is kind to your knives.

It’s just the right size for cheese preparation (though you may also use if for other light kitchen tasks) and it is so attractive that you will want to use this cheese board as a serving tray as well.

Our Bega Valley board is easily maintained and the pleasant aroma is both long lasting and easily renewed.  The look and feel are readily preserved by an occasional application of the great oil we make available for all of our boards.

The Bega Valley Cheese Board makes a great, inexpensive gift for friends or family.  The board may be personalized with three characters that are branded into the board.

Eureka Kitchen Board

Our Eureka Kitchen Board is so attractive that you will want to leave it out on the counter instead of storing it away.

The great looks belie the functionality, however, and the Eureka Kitchen Board is perfect for preparing fruit and vegetables, as well as carving and presenting the main meal.

Crafted from one solid piece of Australian Camphor Laurel, a sustainable timber product, and recycled Red Gum handles, the Eureka Kitchen Board is a functional and very attractive kitchen accessory.

The camphor laurel wood is kind to your cutting tools and it is easily maintained and cleaning is accomplished by the use of warm, soapy water and then rinsed clean and dried. On occasion, a dressing with our special oil is recommended to maintain your board.  Never use hot water on your board, or clean it in the dishwasher as it may dry out the surface.

All of our products are so durable that your children and grandchildren will probably be using yours when you are ready to pass it on to them (so they can cook for you for a change).

Our Eureka Kitchen Board makes a great give for friends and family, especially when personalized by three characters that we will “brand” into the surface.

Board size: 38cm x 27cm x 2.5cm – 1.4kg

Drover Cutting Board

When your food preparation or meat carving requires a little more portability, our Drover Cutting Board is the right tool for the job. Only slightly smaller, yet more easily moved around, the Drover is crafted from one solid piece of Australian Camphor Laurel wood, accented by recycled Red Gum handles that contrast well with the beauty of the camphor laurel.

At 42cm X 35cm X 2.5cm, the Drover had a cutting surface large enough for most tasks, yet small enough to be used as a serving tray or platter for your barbequed meats or chopped vegetables or hors d’oerves.

Like all of our Australian Camphor Laurel chopping and cutting boards, the Drover is easy to clean with warm soap and water, or to maintain by using the special oil we can provide.  Do not use vegetable oils to dress the surface as they will become rancid and may then cause problems.

The Drover Cutting Board makes a great gift for friends or family, particularly when personalized by three characters we will “brand” into the surface.

Every one of our Australian Camphor Laurel products has a unique pattern as they are formed from a single piece of solid wood, not some glued-together product made of various wood scraps.  Quality is the hallmark of our company and product line.

Board size: 42cm x 35cm x 2.5cm

Rocky Chopping Board

Big, Bold and Brawny, just like Australia’s beef producing capital, Rockhampton, after which it is named, our Rocky Chopping Board is carved from one piece of sustainable Australian Camphor Laurel. Offsetting the looks of this huge, beautiful chopping board are the recycled Red Gum handles, a perfect compliment of Australian woods.

The Rocky Chopping Board will look great wherever you are using it, but good looks aside, this marvelous chef’s tool will also do a great job as a food preparation surface. Your cutlery and kitchen tools will work better and their edges will be preserved while you are using your Rocky.

Federation Carving Board

Federation Carving Board is it’s name, versatility is it’s game! Each side of our huge Federation Carving Board is designed for a different purpose. On one side is a great carving board with deep juice channels to catch all that tasty barbeque run-off. The other side is a traditional chopping board for food preparation; vegetables, fruits, salads and meats of all types.

Picture the scene at your next barbeque outing; the Federation Carving Board loaded with juicy cooked meats ready to be carved into serving portions for your guests; that great lamb or beef roast, or those fantastic steaks or grilled ribs . . . it makes one hungry just to visualize this scene. The au jus running out as the carving knife works, only to be caught in the juice channels to be transferred later to a serving dish to be ladled over those slices of roast.

Fashioned from one piece of sustainable Australian Camphor Laurel with distinctive recycled Red Gum handles, the gigantic 50cm X 35cm X 2.5cm workstation is both functional and beautiful.

The Federation is easily cleaned with warm soapy water and then rinsed.  Do not clean it in a dishwasher or with hot water as it will dry out the wood.  Australian Camphor Laurel is naturally anti-bacterial and is easily renewed and maintained using a fine grit sandpaper and the special oils we have made available.

Our Federation Carving Board makes a great gift for friends and family.  It may be personalized by three characters that are “branded” into the board.

At 50cm x 40cm x 2.5cm, this really is a brute of a work station.

Beautiful Camphor Laurel Chopping Boards

Camphor Laurel is an introduced species originally hailing from Asia and was introduced to Australia in the 1820s. Since then it has spread right along eastern Australia from the Atherton Tablelands south to Victoria.

Sustainability

Whilst undeniably attractive and fertile (a large tree can produce 100,000 seeds a year), Camphor Laurel has proven to be an unwelcome guest.

Camphor Laurel is quick to replace native species like blue gum and places strain on koala and other native fauna populations.

However, the simple destruction of camphor laurel trees makes little economic or environmental sense.

Government resources are not available to publicly fund significant eradication so the best solution to the Camphor Laurel problem lies in value adding.

Value adding by way of using the timber to produce camphor oil, furniture, wooden chopping boards, doors, step treads etc, is a more practicable way of reducing the timber stock and providing local employment.

A purchase from www.woodenchoppingboards.com.au helps (in a small way) encourage markets for Camphor Laurel products.

Naturally Anti-Bacterial

Many claims are made about the antibacterial properties of chopping boards made from different materials and some plastic cutting boards are inpregnated with antibacterial additives to enhance their marketing appeal.

However, a local study by Alan Waterson in April 2002, for our supplier, found that not only does camphor laurel timber contain natural anti-bacterial agents, but that nature of the timber also inhibits bacterial growth and colonisation.

In his comparative study of camphor laurel, cedar, plastic and glass cutting board, it was found:

“Camphor Laurel Timber, as tested here, was the most effective food preparation surface with regard to reducing microbial growth. This appears to be a result of the nature of wood in general, & the presence in this particular wood of anti-microbial substances, which are also known to occur naturally in edible products.”

Alan Waterson B.Sc. (Hons) Dip Ed, Lismore, NSW – April 2002

Food Contact

The following extract is from the same study in 2002 and relates to food contact:

“The presence of anti-microbial chemicals in camphor laurel chopping boards raises the question of safety with regard to those chemicals contaminating food. The concentration & types of compounds in camphor wood can vary from tree to tree & between different parts of a tree.

The following compounds are found in Camphor Laurel samples: Camphor; Safrole; Cineole; Cinnamaldehyde; Fatty acids; Mannitol; Limonen; Tannins; Terpineol; Eugenol; Pinene; Linalool and Geraniol (3, 4)

Any of these substances can be toxic in purified form, but there is no evidence to suggest that food contact with Camphor laurel wood (particularly after curing) would produce any adverse effects.
