Cheese Board with Knife, Small

Jens Quistgaard

Pre-order

The teak bar board likes things a certain way. A concave side catches the juice from lemons and limes; the flat side is for cheese. The knife slides into the board when the cutting’s done. A little particular, but sure can throw a party.

Designed by Jens Quistgaard in 1962, the bar board became one of Dansk’s best-selling teak designs, with an estimated half a million produced by 1970. Dansk’s collection of teak bowls, boards, pepper mills, and serving pieces helped make the wood a defining presence on the midcentury American table. This dual-sided board’s end-grain butcher-block construction creates a distinctive patchwork surface that’s gentle on the blade and extremely durable.

Use & Care

Hand wash with warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft cloth or sponge. Wipe dry promptly and allow to air-dry completely before storing. Do not soak or place in the dishwasher.

If the wood begins to look dry, apply a light coat of food-grade mineral oil and wipe away any excess. Do not use teak oils intended for outdoor furniture.

DESIGNER

Jens Quistgaard

“As you know, a spoon is very close to being like the leaf on a stem.” Quistgaard noticed how one part of a natural form became another, and wanted that same ease in the things he designed. He paid attention to where a handle widened, where an edge turned, how the whole thing felt in your hand. There was a great deal to work out in something as familiar as a spoon.

Nothing overthought. Nothing ordinary.
