Are all the wooden products in this collection really handcrafted and unique?

Yes! Every piece in our Wooden Products collection at The Makers Society Shop is genuinely handcrafted in Dubai by skilled artisans. Because we use natural woods like walnut, maple, iroko, cherry, and ash, and each item is handmade, small variations in grain, color, and design are expected—making every cutting board, serving tray, or coaster truly one-of-a-kind. No two pieces are exactly alike, which means you're getting a unique home accessory every time.

How do I care for and clean my handcrafted wooden cutting boards and trays?

It’s easy to keep your wooden boards and trays looking their best! We finish each item with food-grade, plant-based oils for safety and durability. For cleaning, simply wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap, then dry immediately. Avoid soaking in water or putting in the dishwasher to preserve the wood. We recommend a quick oiling using food-safe mineral oil or beeswax every few months to keep your board hydrated and maintain its smooth, beautiful finish.

Are the materials used for these wooden products safe and sustainable?

Absolutely! We only use responsibly sourced wood—such as walnut, maple, iroko, cherry, and ash—for our products. Every platter, tray, and coaster is finished with food-grade, plant-based oils, ensuring they’re safe for everyday kitchen use. Our commitment to sustainability means you can enjoy beautiful wooden home accessories with peace of mind, knowing they’re crafted with the environment in mind.

How long does shipping take, and how are wooden products packaged?
