These beautiful cutting and charcuterie boards are the latest project from Canadian designer Geoffrey Lilge, who's recently set up his own solo studio after a decade in the industry.

They're made by hand from solid FSC-Certified maple and walnut and come in eight functional shapes.

Lilge finishes each one in his studio with four coats of natural oil and beeswax - a technique inspired by the craft sensibilities of his family upbringing.

The initial form came form his mother's homemade cutting board, and when given the task of outfitting his wife's new restaurant, he realised that the time had finally come to develop his own collection of boards.

So this collection has emerged after four years of prototypes, some serious testing and gluttonous amounts of charcuterie.

Well worth the wait; we think they'd make the perfect addition to any kitchen.
