Ballotine Butcher Block 60
Tax included where applicable. Delivery and commissioning arranged by your concierge.
QORZAVEN Islands — the room's centre of gravity
Butchers figured out worktops first; the Ballotine inherits the trade — 60 to 90 mm of end-grain, honest scars to come, and undershelf or castor options for the way your kitchen actually moves.
A good island is furniture with civic duties: end-grain blocks fitted for real knife work, stainless zones where heat lands, and storage planned from the cook's orbit outward. Ours are drawn around how your kitchen actually moves — then built to hold that choreography for decades.

Care
Oil worktops and blocks when they whisper grey — monthly at first, seasonally after. Standing water is the only real enemy; the supplied oil and cloth are the whole toolkit.
Questions, Answered
What size island fits my room?
The honest rule is a metre of walkway on working sides. Send the plan; we draw the largest island that never makes you sidestep.
Does an island need services in the floor?
Power usually, water and extraction only if the plan puts cooking or washing there. We map routes at survey — before floors are a decision you regret.
The QORZAVEN Promise
Every QORZAVEN kitchen is measured twice and drawn once: laser survey, millimetre drawings, and stone templated digitally after the cabinets stand — the gap between plan and wall is ours to own.
