John Boos Bloc de Foyer – 5" End-Grain Cherry Butcher Block Island with Drawer & Shelf
The John Boos Bloc de Foyer is as much a furniture masterpiece as it is a kitchen workhorse. A commanding 5" cherry end-grain butcher block rests on a bold black painted base with notched square legs, a discreet apron drawer, and a sturdy slatted shelf. Finished with Boos Block Cream (beeswax formula), it’s built to serve for decades and to grow more beautiful with every year of use.
A Five-Inch Cherry Worktop That Lasts Generations
At 5 inches thick, the Bloc de Foyer’s cherry top is a symbol of strength and refinement. Its end-grain surface cushions every cut, keeping knives sharper longer and gradually darkening into a rich patina with age.
- Knife-friendly: end-grain fibers protect blades and self-heal after cuts.
- Patina with time: cherry wood deepens in tone for heirloom appeal.
- Comfort edges: ½" radius rounding makes the surface soft to the touch.
Discreet Storage Meets Bold Design
The apron drawer blends seamlessly into the black base, offering a hidden spot for utensils or linens. Below, a slatted cherry shelf keeps cookware or serving pieces within easy reach. The contrast of black legs against warm cherry adds presence to any kitchen or foyer.
- Hidden drawer: storage without cluttering the design.
- Slatted shelf: versatile space for cookware or décor.
- Notched legs: subtle detailing that elevates the silhouette.
