This beast measures a full 20" by 14" and is 1.5" thick. It's strips of solid Rock maple laminated between strips of chocolate colored walnut. The contrast looks great, but will you want to dirty it with food? Of course. It washes clean with soap and water and then it should be dried immediately. It comes pre-treated with mineral oil from our shop. It's mounted on 4 rubber feet which lets the underside breathe and prevents the cutting board from moving while cutting. We sell confidence while cutting.
