Add character to your kitchen with this hand-carved mango wood chopping board. Decorated with floral mandala motifs, each board is carved by Indian artisans using traditional tools and time-honoured techniques.

Made from sustainable mango wood, it’s strong yet lightweight - perfect for everyday prep, effortless serving or as a rustic display piece for cheese and antipasti.

In Indian culture, flowers aren’t just decorative - they symbolise strength, generosity and spiritual connection. That’s why you’ll find them woven through the art, rituals and crafts of every celebration.

Whether you’re cooking for one or hosting a feast, this board brings function, soul and beauty to the table.

Handcrafted & Supports Craftsmanship

Intricately hand-carved from mango wood by Mohammed from Saharanpur, India, which is known for its incredible woodwork. Here, origins of the craft can be traced back to the late 19th century and is influenced by Kashmiri designs due to its migration of artisans.

The craftsmanship requires a selection of simple tools, hours of manual labour and precision.

Naturally Strong. Water Resistant.

Although the mango tree is best known for its delicious fruit, its wood has been used in India for over 4,000 years to construct palaces, temples and mosques thanks to its durability, water-repellent properties, beauty and strength.

Not only is mango wood sustainable, it generates extra income for farmers once the trees have stopped bearing fruit and provides an affordable and easy to work with the material for artisans.

Durable & Easy to Clean

Wash immediately after use. Wash with mild detergent using soft cloth or sponge. Do not serve hot food items. Do not scrub. Not recommended for dishwasher or microwave.

FAQs

Is the floral carving deep enough to trap food?
The carving is shallow enough to easily brush clean, but we recommend using the flat reverse side for messy prep work and the carved side for serving dry foods like bread or cheese.
Does the wood have a strong smell?
No, mango wood has a very mild, natural, slightly sweet scent that will not transfer to your food.
I'm not South Asian - is it okay to buy or gift these pieces?

Honestly, yes - whether that's for yourself or someone you care about.

Every item at ALORAA comes with a real story: who made it, where, using skills passed down through generations. When you bring one of these into your home or give one to someone you love, you're not just acquiring an object. You're sharing that story. That's not appropriation - it's how craft traditions survive.

The distinction that matters isn't your background. It's whether you're engaging with the culture or just borrowing the aesthetic without the story. Knowing the provenance, buying from a brand built to support the makers, choosing something with meaning attached - that's appreciation.

Are your materials sustainably sourced?

Wherever possible, yes. We prioritise materials that are responsibly harvested, recycled, or upcycled. Each product page shares details about what's used in that piece.

Why ALORAA?

Because beautiful things shouldn't come at someone else's expense. Every piece should carry respect - for the maker, the materials, and for you.

We pay fair wages without compromise and share the real stories behind our craft. That's how we create decor worth owning - and keeping.

Do you offer gift notes and wrapping?

We offer beautiful gift wrapping for just £4 and complimentary handwritten notes to make your gift even more special.

Just choose the gift option at checkout or drop us an email.

Do you offer trade or wholesale pricing?

Absolutely. We love working with interior designers, stylists and businesses. Email us at hello@aloraa.co.uk to chat about trade partnerships or bulk orders.
