The Ferm Living Cairn Butter Boards – Set of 4 take their soft curves and sculpted details from cairns, the man-made stone stacks traditionally raised as markers, translating that organic language into four small wooden boards for the table.
Carved from solid, FSC™-certified ash wood with a carbonised finish and rounded edges, the boards measure roughly 20 x 14.56 x 4cm and work well as individual plates for breakfast or lunch, or as a decorative way of serving food. Available in Dark Brown and Oak, they are not dishwasher safe, and as naturally finished pieces some variation in size and colour should be expected.
Pair them with the Cairn Butter Knives from the Ferm Living collection for a complete set.

Cairn: carved ash and oak shaped like stacked stones
DesignerFerm Living design studio
Cairn takes its soft curves from cairns, the stacks of stones people raise as markers and memorials. The Ferm Living design studio carves each piece from solid FSC certified wood, either ash with a carbonised dark brown finish or varnished oak, for the kitchen, the table, the hallway and the bathroom.

Carved from solid wood
Every piece is cut from solid FSC certified wood, with delicate rounded edges.
Two wood finishes
Carbonised ash gives a deep dark brown; varnished oak keeps a lighter, warm tone.
One grinder, two spices
The grinder takes salt or pepper and adjusts its grind at the base.
From breakfast to hallway
Boards, knives and egg holders for the table; hooks and a comb for the rest of the home.

Stones stacked as markers
Cairns are man-made stacks of stones, raised as markers and memorials. The series translates their rounded, balanced silhouettes into wood, so a grinder, a hook or a butter knife keeps the look of stones set one on top of another.

Carbonised ash or oak
Dark brown pieces are FSC certified ash with a carbonised finish, which leaves a deep tone and a charred scent that fades over time. Oak pieces are FSC certified solid oak, varnished. Final polishing means size and colour vary slightly.

A piece for each task
The grinder works for salt or pepper and adjusts at the base. The shakers refill through a rubber cap, the egg holder has a second hollow for salt, and the Ø32 cm centrepiece rests on four small feet like wooden pearls.
Materials
- Carbonised ash
- The charred surface gives the dark brown colour; its smoky scent diminishes with time.
- Varnished oak
- FSC certified solid oak with a varnished surface for a lighter, natural look.
- Hand care
- Not dishwasher safe. Hand-wash boards, knives, egg holders and the centrepiece with dish soap on both sides; wipe the grinder, shakers and hooks with a damp cloth.
Ferm Living was founded in Copenhagen in 2006 by Trine Andersen, and its collections are developed by the brand's in-house design studio there. In Cairn the studio uses one sculptural language across many small objects, from cutting boards and wine stoppers to a comb and wall hooks, so the pieces read as a family wherever they are used.
Using it at home
Can Cairn go in the dishwasher?
No. Hand-wash boards, knives and egg holders with dish soap, and wipe the grinder, shakers and hooks with a damp cloth.
Why does the dark brown wood smell smoky?
The carbonised finish leaves a charred scent, which diminishes over time.
Can the grinder be used for salt?
Yes. It works for both salt and pepper, and the grinding level is adjusted at the bottom.
Can I cut on the Cairn cutting boards?
Yes. The set of three is made for preparing food as well as serving it at the table.
Why do pieces vary in size and colour?
Each piece is polished by hand to its organic shape, so small differences in size and wood colour occur.
