'Hinoki' cutting board in Japanese cypress
Copy the link on the product you want, then go to Wish Cloud or Giftster and add it to your wish list.
The beautiful 'Hinoki' board is made from a whole Hinoki plank, which is cut from stems from over 200-year-old Japanese Hinoki cypresses.
Hinoki wood is extremely gentle on your knives - especially carbon knives or other very hard and brittle Japanese steel types benefit from the soft Hinoki wood as the blades do not chip so easily when you cut into the board.
Hinoki is durable, light and antibacterial. The grain rings are dense and the wood is resilient, so if you take good care of the board, you can use it for many years.
We import the Hinoki tree ourselves from Japan. The board measures 42 x 23 x 3 cm and has a milled handle so that it can be easily turned and used on both sides.
In addition, 'Hinoki' comes with a discreet brass signature detail on one long side.
Please note that Hinoki is a very soft and light type of wood, which requires different care and maintenance than our other boards that are made of hard wood. Read more about hinoki here:
About Hinoki, care/maintenance
◎ About use
Hinoki wood expands and contracts as it absorbs moisture or dries.
Avoid excessive drying by exposing it to direct sunlight or leaving it in water for long periods, as this can cause the wood to warp and crack.
Wet the surface thoroughly before use to prevent the board from absorbing bacteria and odors.
After use, we recommend that you wash (or scrub) the board with coarse salt instead of using washing-up liquid. This will preserve the wood's natural antiseptic properties.
Allow the board to dry thoroughly in a shaded area with good ventilation, then store in a dry place.
◎About resin
Resin extraction may occur on the surface. This is a natural resin that is harmless to humans. It is the resin that is the source of the board's wonderful scent and also contributes to the wood's antiseptic properties. If you think the board is "sticky" a little, you can wipe the board with pure alcohol.
In general
We take all product photos ourselves and try to continuously expand the catalog as far as possible, so that sizes and designs are best illustrated in the webshop.Please note that all product photos are real photographs of the specific products. However, some photos have added interiors and surroundings created using artificial intelligence to create atmosphere and put the product into context.
Regarding 'Woodworks'
There are no photos of all variants and sizes, so the photo that appears when choosing a variant in the webshop primarily reflects only the type of wood - not necessarily size or other variations in the design.NOTE that we always try to create unique wooden products with an exciting visual expression. You must therefore take our product photos as a guide and not as a guarantee of how the finished product appears in terms of year drawings and color play.
