LARA Butcher Block Island

$2,100.00 – $2,900.00

Our handcrafted LARA butcher block cart features an 8-inch drop leaf extension, making it a versatile addition to any kitchen. Whether you need extra workspace or counter seating, this cart adapts to your needs. The 1½-inch thick sugar maple butcher block top is locally sourced and kiln-dried, prized for its durability, tight grain, and natural resistance to bacteria—ideal for food prep.

By default, the LARA cart includes an 8-inch drop leaf at the back, but we offer custom options to suit your space:

• Leaves on both front and back: Removes the drawer for expanded workspace.
• Leaves on one or both sides: Extends the work surface while keeping the drawer functional.

The solid maple base is built to last and can be painted in any color to complement your kitchen. The cart also features a spacious Shaker-style utensil drawer, though the version shown does not include a pull. Hardware customization is available upon request.

FAQ

What wood options are available for your butcher block tops?

We offer two wood choices: sugar maple and walnut. Sugar maple is our standard option, valued for its durability, resistance to scratches, and low-maintenance care. Walnut provides the same functionality with a warm, rich brown color and natural antimicrobial properties. If you’re interested in walnut, please contact us for pricing, as it’s offered at a different rate.

Can I choose the grain style of the butcher block?

Yes! We offer both edge grain and end grain options. Edge grain has a sleek, uniform look, while end grain features a distinctive checkered pattern. Both styles are gentle on knives and help minimize visible wear. If you’d like to explore either option further, feel free to reach out.

Shipping & Handling

Please reach out with any questions before purchasing—we’re happy to provide more details about the delivery process!

Clients in most of New England and the NY Metro area will receive white glove delivery.

For clients outside our white glove delivery region, items are typically delivered by appointment in one of two ways:

Shipper-Assisted Delivery: In most cases, your item will be carefully wrapped and delivered without the need for a pallet, eliminating pallet waste. The shipper will assist in bringing the item into your home, but additional help may be required depending on the size and weight of the item.
Freight Pallet Delivery: When shipper-assisted delivery is not available, your item will be flat-packed on a freight pallet and delivered to your curbside or driveway. You will need help to unpack the pallet and move the product into your home, as freight drivers cannot assist with unpacking or placement.

Details

Each piece is made to order in our Connecticut workshop. Measurements are approximate, and slight variations may occur, reflecting the unique nature of handcrafted furniture. Natural wood expands and contracts with the seasons. Due to the handcrafted process, butcher block thickness may vary by approximately ±¹⁄₁₆ inch from sanding and finishing.
