Billot de boucher sur pieds cannelés, ceinture découpée et galerie

Le plateau frappe d'abord : une épaisse dalle gris anthracite, mouchetée de clair, aux bords arrondis, d'apparence minérale. Derrière court une galerie de bois basse, fendue d'une longue rainure. Le bâti, d'un bois blond marqué de nœuds, s'orne de pointes de diamant aux dés d'angle et d'une ceinture découpée en festons percés. Un tiroir à anneau de métal occupe la façade. Quatre pieds tournés et cannelés, finis en boule, donnent à l'ensemble une allure presque architecturale.

Le billot de boucher se taille d'ordinaire dans des bois durs à grain serré. Le charme y fait référence chez les professionnels, le hêtre résiste mieux aux coups que le chêne aux pores ouverts, et l'orme se rencontre sur des billots anciens ; le plateau en bois de bout, fibres debout, amortit le choc de la lame. Un billot français du début du XXe siècle, en hêtre, montre ainsi un plateau creusé par l'usage et des plaques de fer aux angles. La fiche décrit celui-ci en bois massif, alors que son plateau paraît minéral : un point à vérifier sur la pièce.

The top strikes first: a thick slab of charcoal grey, flecked with paler points, with rounded edges and a mineral look. Behind it runs a low wooden gallery split by a long groove. The frame, in a blond wood marked with knots, is set with diamond points on the corner blocks and a cut-out apron of pierced scallops. A drawer with a metal ring pull occupies the front. Four turned and fluted legs ending in bun feet give the whole an almost architectural bearing.

Butchers' blocks are usually cut from hard, close-grained woods. Hornbeam is the professional reference, beech stands up to blows better than open-pored oak, and elm is found on old blocks; an end-grain top, with the fibres standing upright, cushions the blow of the blade. One French block of the early twentieth century, in beech, shows a top hollowed by use and iron plates at the corners. The listing describes this piece as solid wood, whereas its top looks mineral: a point to check on the object.
