John Boos Walnut Island Top, 1.5 Thick, 72 x 32

The John Boos Blended Walnut Kitchen Counter Top is both attractive and functional, providing a tough duty cutting surface wherever it is needed. Each counter top is designed to be both aesthetically pleasing and highly practical, featuring a durable cutting surface that can be utilized throughout the kitchen. Crafted from top-grade American Black walnut that was sustainably harvested, the surface is finished with a food-safe penetrating oil, the same factory finish used on John Boos' renowned cutting boards and butcher blocks. This oil finish is absorbed into the wood fibers, enhancing the counter's water resistance and simplifying spill clean-up.

To preserve the counter's beauty and longevity, John Boos recommends periodic oiling with their proprietary John Boos Mystery Oil (sold separately on Amazon). The countertop's construction features full-length exterior rails and random finger-jointed interior rails, contributing to its unique color variations. During installation, it is important to note that any overhang of 8 inches or more in width, and 12 inches or more in length, must be stabilized with proper support.

These beautiful blended walnut countertops are proudly made in the USA by skilled craftspeople. Designed to complement a wide range of kitchen styles and décors, the rich tones of these highly functional surfaces provide an easy-care alternative to granite or stone countertops, while still offering a durable food preparation and cutting area.

Sealed and finished "Varnique" versions of this countertop are also available and sold separately. It is crucial to understand that this countertop is not intended to be reversible. The underside, which will be installed facing downwards, may occasionally display minor irregularities, such as a small nick, in the wood. These slight imperfections are intentional, reflecting the manufacturer's commitment to sustainability and the responsible use of every part of the wood. However, these irregularities are confined to the hidden underside and will not impact the function or appearance of the installed countertop.

Measuring 72 inches long, 32 inches wide, and 1.5 inches thick, this walnut wood countertop features an edge-grain construction with the same food-safe oil finish used on John Boos' renowned cutting boards. This allows the counter to be utilized as a cutting surface, while the periodic application of the John Boos Mystery Oil will help preserve its durability and beauty over time. Wooden countertops, such as this one, offer a low-maintenance alternative to marble and granite, making them an attractive option for modern kitchens.
