Antique country French boucherie billot de boucher (butchershop butcher block) with beautifully aged heavily worn patina, full of antique character and charm, rustic warmth, and rich historical depth, with its original maker's label! Created in Provincial France in the late 19th century, this culinary icon exudes history and craftsmanship, having a shaped backsplash with convenient tool slot for storing utensils, meat cleavers, and knives. Featuring a thick heavy-duty contoured end-grain work surface with attractive worn smooth rich distressed patina, authentic wear, knife marks, and uneven organic form acquired from generations of cutting, chopping, carving, typical industrial knife work and butchery. Banded with large corner brackets, the rectangular butcher block sits over a paneled base stand fitted with a single deep spacious drawer, affixed with the original oversized pull, ideal for convenient knife storage and easy access, rising on chunky turned fluted legs. Includes a later carved back with iron bull head. Ideal medium/large size and substantial proportions for a variety of different uses, including as a functional farmhouse kitchen work table, buffet server, complex charcuterie serving board, massive wabi-sabi console, potting bench, or simply displayed in a commercial restaurant, wine bar or retail gourmet food store as a decorative statement piece or focal point.
