Guarantee & returns details

  • Water beads off. The fire-sealed surface resists bacteria and doesn't stain.

  • One solid piece of hardwood. No glue, no joints, no laminate.

  • The char stays put. Sealed in, so it won't rub off in normal use; knife marks settle into the grain.

  • Food-safe finish. Sealed with our plant-based OilCure™.

  • Every board is one of a kind. Fire reveals the grain; no two are alike.

Product Description

"Tool" in Japanese
A single piece of hardwood, hand-charred using Yakisugi - the Japanese technique of preserving wood through fire.

The charring isn't decorative. It hardens the surface, draws out the grain, and creates a natural carbon layer that repels water, resists bacteria, and doesn't stain. The board gets better with use, not worse.

40 x 20cm. The middle of the range in every sense - enough surface for proper cooking, compact enough to handle easily. The board you reach for every day without thinking about it.

Sizing

40cm x 20cm x 2cm (15 3/4" x 7 3/4")

Material

Teakwood

Finishing

Shou Sugi Ban (Charred with Fire)
Foodgrade MIneral Oil and Hardwax (Beeswax + Canauba wax blend)

焼杉板 · The proof

Don't take our word for it. Watch the board do the work.

Four things people ask before they buy - answered in a few seconds each.

The Proof

The Water Test

Same water. Same pour. Completely different result.

Regular Wood

Regular Wood

Absorbs. Stains. Warps.

Water penetrates the surface, carrying bacteria deep into the grain where cleaning can't reach.

vs
ARTSN — Fire-Treated

ARTSN — Fire-Treated

Repels. Beads. Protects.

Water can't penetrate the charred carbon surface. It beads into perfect spheres and rolls away. No staining. No bacteria entry.

Our Story

Our limited collection of handcrafted, Japanese-inspired cutting boards have been created in partnership with skilled artisans—real people dedicated to crafting products that bring connection, functionality and beauty to your kitchen.

Shou Sugi Ban

Shou Sugi Ban, a traditional Japanese wood preservation technique, involves carefully charring the surface of wood to enhance its durability and beauty.

This age-old technique not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also ensures that our cutting boards are exceptionally durable, hygienic, and ideal for the demands of modern kitchens.

Sustainable

Our process begins with responsibly sourced timber and reclaimed logs, carefully cut into smaller blocks. Through expert craftsmanship, these blocks are transformed into beautiful boards, each piece telling the story of sustainability and an artisans craft.

    Beautiful Board, Exceptional Customer Service

    I’m delighted to update my review. The CEO of ARTSN Studio responded immediately to me personally and worked hard to make things right, following through on his promise to send me a replacement board. The new cutting board is absolutely beautiful, arrived in perfect condition, and works like dream. The water just beads off and I love the feel of it under my knife. It’s perfect!

    What impressed me even more, however, was the customer service. I don’t think I have ever experienced such direct, personal, and highly responsive support from a company. ARTSN Studio truly stands behind its products and cares about its customers. I am officially a fan!

    Dougu Clasic

    Beautiful board. Bought 2 and gave one to my son. We both enjoy their beauty, weight and ease of cleanup. I like mine so much I purchased the Kuro and Etsu boards. Looking forward to years of use.

    Beautiful and very useful

    I love these Dougu boards ( I got the classic and the smaller one.) and use them every day! They are beautiful for displaying cheese board and functional for chopping board. Clean up is a breeze. Don't hesitate if you are considering as I highly recommend!
