In the ancient world, acacia was the wood chosen above all others for the most sacred objects. The Ark of the Covenant, the Tabernacle, the altar of burnt offering, the table of showbread — all were fashioned from acacia wood, commanded by God to Moses in Exodus 25 and 26. It was chosen for its strength, its density, its resistance to decay, and its beauty: a wood that endures. The Acacia Wood Cutting & Charcuterie Board by Kalmar Home brings that same ancient, enduring material to the modern table — a 26” x 9” extra-large solid acacia board, handcrafted to highlight the wood’s natural grain patterns and distinct character, built for the work of the kitchen and the beauty of the table.
At 26” x 9”, the board is generously sized for any task: chopping, slicing, and dicing in the kitchen, or a full charcuterie spread — cheeses, cured meats, fruits, nuts, olives, and bread — laid out for guests. The solid acacia construction provides a sturdy, stable surface that withstands the demands of daily use without warping or wearing. The comfortable handle is thoughtfully shaped for a secure grip, making the board as easy to carry to the table as it is to use at the counter.
Each board is meticulously handcrafted, with the natural grain patterns and color variations of solid acacia wood ensuring that every piece is unique. No two boards are identical — the wood’s own character is the design. Hand wash with mild soap and warm water; occasional oiling with food-grade mineral oil preserves the wood’s natural luster for years to come.
“Have them make an ark of acacia wood.” — Exodus 25:10
