Bring Natural Character To Your Kitchen With Rustic Solid Oak

Create a warm, inviting kitchen with the Howdens Unfinished Rustic Oak Solid Wood Kitchen Worktop. Crafted from genuine rustic oak, this premium worktop celebrates the natural beauty of timber with distinctive knots, grain variation and authentic character, making every worktop unique.

Available in 1.86m and 3m lengths, its substantial 40mm square edge profile creates a premium appearance that's equally at home in farmhouse, shaker, country and contemporary kitchens.

Authentic Rustic Oak Finish

Unlike clear oak, rustic oak embraces the timber's natural features, including characterful knots and varied grain patterns, creating a truly individual work surface.

Supplied unfinished, it allows you to apply your preferred worktop oil, hardwax oil or stain, giving you complete control over the final appearance while protecting the timber for years to come.

As a genuine solid wood worktop, it can also be sanded and refinished throughout its lifetime, making it a durable long-term investment.

Built For Everyday Living

Manufactured from solid oak block staves, this worktop offers exceptional strength and durability for busy kitchens.
