Beech Larder with Aluminium Mesh – Anti-Insect Storage, 4 Sizes

This larder in solid beech is fitted with an aluminium wire mesh on its side panels and door, protecting food from insects while maintaining continuous air circulation — an essential condition for natural preservation at ambient temperature. Available in 4 sizes — from the small compact model to the large cellar model — it adapts to all storage volumes. Its 2 hinged doors and carrying handle make it both functional and easy to move.

In the tradition of old-fashioned larders, this unit allows you to store fruits, vegetables, cheeses, and dried meats outside the refrigerator, in conditions that respect their natural ageing and gradual ripening.

Which size to choose?

The 29x29x25cm model is suitable for 2 people with moderate daily use — a few fruits and one or two cheeses. The 39x39x29cm model is suited to a family of 3–4. The 49x47x39cm model is the most versatile format for families who shop in large quantities. The large 59x29x39cm model is dedicated to cellars and pantries, for weekly provisions.

Storage tips

Place the larder in a cool, dry spot away from direct sunlight. Do not store strongly scented products (washed-rind cheeses) together with delicate fruits (strawberries, peaches) — aromas transfer. For dried meats and charcuterie, prefer hanging them on a hook fixed at the top of the unit rather than laying them flat on the shelf.

Maintenance

Wipe the interior walls with a cloth lightly dampened with vinegar water to neutralise persistent odours. The aluminium mesh can be cleaned with soapy water and a soft brush. Do not immerse the unit. Beech can be oiled annually with food-safe oil to maintain its natural appearance.

WoodUp Tip

Place a sheet of kraft paper or a clean cloth on the shelves — this absorbs residual moisture from cheeses and makes weekly cleaning easier. For soft-rind cheeses (camembert, brie), leave them in their original box to prevent the ammonia from the rind from spreading throughout the unit.

Please note before purchasing: this larder is suitable for short to medium-term storage (a few days to 1–2 weeks depending on the product) at cool ambient temperature. It does not replace an ageing cellar for cheeses requiring several weeks of maturation.

Frequently asked questions

Does this larder protect against mice and rodents?

The fine-mesh aluminium grid protects against insects and small rodents under normal indoor use conditions. For use in a garage or cellar with a known presence of rodents, extra vigilance is recommended — the wood itself can be gnawed by determined mice.

Can medications or non-food products be stored in this unit?

Yes. The larder is also suitable for storing medications, essential oils, garden products, or any item requiring a cool place protected from insects. In this case, avoid mixing them with food items.

What is the difference from the flat-pack plywood larder?

The solid beech larder is made from solid wood — heavier, more durable, traditional appearance. The flat-pack plywood larder is lighter and available in 3 stackable modular sizes — more practical for small spaces or limited budgets.

Can this larder be used outdoors?

No. Untreated solid beech is an indoor wood — it deteriorates quickly with direct outdoor exposure. For a terrace or outdoor cellar larder, treated wood or a material suited to outdoor use is required.
