Bring natural warmth and lasting quality into your home with the Howdens Unfinished Oak Block Solid Wood Kitchen Worktop. Manufactured from premium solid oak, this beautifully crafted worktop showcases the natural grain and character of real timber while allowing you to choose your own finish for a truly bespoke look.

Featuring a contemporary 27mm square edge profile, it's ideal for modern, Scandinavian, shaker and traditional kitchens alike.

Genuine Solid Oak Ready For Your Chosen Finish

Made from carefully selected solid oak block staves, this worktop highlights the natural beauty of hardwood with rich grain patterns and warm timber tones.

Supplied unfinished, it gives you complete freedom to oil, wax or stain the surface to suit your kitchen design while providing long-term protection.
