Hinoki Wood Two-Sided Chopping Board / 檜まな板
Hinoki, a species of cypress native to central Japan in East Asia, has been a precious wood since ancient times in Japan for building shrines. Because of its water-repellent surface, the Japanese “Hinoki” cypress is a typical material but more luxurious for making wooden tools in families.
Hinoki wood is also known for its strength and antibacterial characteristics.
The chopping board is made by traditional handcrafting techniques. Opening the package, you can feel the unique scent of the hinoki.
As the whole piece is handmade in Japan, slight irregularities in size, glaze, colour and texture might occur and reflect the nature of the artisan product.
