Camphor Laurel – Dressed – Slab – 3 sizes

Camphor laurel dressed mini-slab, ready to sand and finish. Approximately 200–300mm wide × 25mm thick. Perfect for serving platters, charcuterie boards, and small woodworking projects.

Camphor laurel is the most variable timber we sell — grey, green, brown and pink can all turn up in the one board. No two pieces look alike.

Camphor laurel has a way of stopping people mid-workshop. The grain swirls. The colour runs from pale straw to warm green in the same board — sometimes in the same cut. It smells faintly of camphor when you work it, which fades once finished.

These mini-slabs are dressed on both faces; ready for your sander. Width runs approximately 200–300mm (natural timber, so it varies slightly piece to piece) and they come in at a consistent 25mm thick. Two coats of Rustins Danish Oil or U-Beaut Food Safe Oil and an hour’s work and you’ve got something that looks better than from a boutique kitchen store.

Available in three lengths. The 600mm is the most popular for a standard entertaining board. The 800mm suits a larger platter or a small side table top. The 400mm is great for a quick weekend project or a kids’ first build.
