Serving Duluth, GA
Handcrafted cutting boards
in Duluth, Georgia
Duluth is just across the Chattahoochee from my Johns Creek workshop. I build walnut, maple and cherry boards for daily prep, big shared meals and gifts, one at a time.
Local and handmade
Built for Duluth kitchens.
I’m Ishtyaq Qadri (Wosta), and I have made boards in Johns Creek since founding Koshur Chaan in 2015. Boards start at $50 and vary by wood and dimensions.
A hardwood board stays useful long after the occasion: daily prep, shared meals, serving and gifts.
Whether the menu is a quick weekday meal or a table full of family favorites, I build boards meant for real use.
Duluth sits just across the Chattahoochee from Johns Creek, so studio pickup is a short drive. Many kitchens here cook for a crowd, and a wide hardwood board handles everything from weeknight prep to a family-style spread.
Hosting a get-together near the Duluth Town Green or heading to an event at the Gas South District? A serving board with a handle travels well, and a hard maple prep board stands up to heavy daily chopping at home.
For a Duluth kitchen that cooks for a crowd, I would suggest a large hard maple board, at least 18 inches long, with feet to lift it off the counter. Maple is the hardest of the three woods, so it stands up to heavy, everyday knife work, and the extra length gives you room to prep several dishes at once.
I also make boards for Johns Creek, Alpharetta, Atlanta, Buckhead and Suwanee, and for customers across Georgia.

Popular boards
Board styles I build most
Edge-grain walnut
A walnut board stands up to heavy daily cooking and is kind to knife edges. It’s the everyday board I make most.
Charcuterie and entertaining
Roomy serving boards give Duluth hosts space for fruit, breads, appetizers, and the many dishes that make a shared table feel abundant.
Custom gift boards
I can adjust proportions, wood combinations, handles and edge details to suit how the board will be given and used.
Gift ideas
Gifts for Duluth friends, family and clients
Common uses include wedding and housewarming gifts, serving boards for family gatherings, and everyday kitchen boards sized for regular prep.
I finish and wrap each board, then ship it or have it ready for pickup at my Johns Creek workshop by appointment.
Board care
Caring for your board
Washing
After cooking, wash it by hand, dry it with a towel and stand it upright. Never let it sit in a sink of water.
Oiling
Rub in food-grade mineral oil whenever water stops beading on the surface, usually about once a month.
Refreshing
Heavy use leaves marks. Sand from 150 to 220 grit, wipe off the dust, and oil it two or three times.
For the full routine, see my Board Care page.
