Le Bloc features a rich red cherry work surface with four solid coal black gently tapered pencil legs, combining the colors of passion and mystery to create a practical work of art. Le Bloc stands 34 inches high, an ideal height for food preparation tasks, and can be ordered with the standard Boos block cream with beeswax or the Natural Oil finish. The Boos block cream penetrates deeply into the grains of the wood, leaving a silky wax barrier to lock moisture in. The Natural Oil finish seals and protects the wood, keeping the butcher block in top condition longer. Both finishes allow Le Bloc to be used as a cutting surface. Le Bloc can also be purchased with locking caster wheels that let you move the butcher block wherever you need it and keep it securely in place when positioned.
Le Bloc features a 10-inch thick cherry butcher block with end-grain construction. The end-grain work surface is easy on knives; during cutting or chopping, the end grain wood fibers absorb the impact of the blade, which keeps knives sharper longer. The malleable and forgiving end grain surface is resistant to nicks and gouges, which prevents bacteria from entering the wood, keeps the board looking new longer and increases its longevity.
Please note: if you would like caster wheels with your butcher block, please be sure to add them to your order when you make your purchase. This item is made to order. When caster wheels are added to an order at the time of purchase the legs are pre-drilled and cut in production to accept the casters. You will not be able to easily obtain or add caster wheels to your butcher block separately at a later date, so if you think you will want casters with your butcher block, please use the drop down menu above to include them with your order.

John Boos & Co is firmly committed to managing environmental matters as an integral part of their business practice. Some of the steps they take to accomplish their “green” status include manufacturing wood products that emit far less carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, methane and other gases than processing non-wood substitutes; using only formaldehyde free and low emission formaldehyde gluing processes in manufacturing our butcher blocks; and having active recycling programs in place with 95% of all raw materials, scrap, and even their sawdust recycled as fuel to heat their kilns. Boos’ sawdust is also recycled as livestock bedding for their local agricultural needs.
