Hinoki Cutting Board - Crafted from Japanese Cypress for Durability and Beauty
ORIGINS: The Kiso Hinoki or Japanese Cypress Tree is an evergreen conifer native to Japan. They are known for their fragrant wood, which is used as building construction material and for making furniture. The trees can reach heights of up to 40 feet and have a pyramidal shape with a dense canopy of foliage. This wood is highly valued for its resilience and durability which has withstood the test of time.
DESIGN: Crafted from Japanese cypress, this cutting board is designed to provide a lifetime of service. Each board is handcrafted in Japan, ensuring that it meets the strictest standards of quality and craftsmanship. The board is made from sustainably sourced materials, making it an eco-friendly choice for home cooks.
QUALITY: Each of our trees are harvested from the Kiso Valley, a naturally mountainous region located between Nagano and Gifu Prefectures. This location sees copious amounts of precipitation and deep snows in the winter thus allowing our trees to grow slow and strong. It is these unique conditions which allow for the beautiful tree ring design on your new cutting board. The Japanese Cypress has a rich straight grain that is resistant to warping, splitting and rot. Unrivaled in durability with a clean fragrance and nearly divine beauty, the Hinoki cutting board is a one of a kind product made by hand in Japan.
Properties: This light and durable cutting board measures 27cm (10.6 inches) wide, 40cm (15.7 inches) long and approximately 3cm (1.2 inches) thick. It is crafted from straight grain sap wood which allows for its alluring pale color and wonderful smell unique to Japanese Cypress trees. Once taken in the hand, you will be able to experience the splendor of this one of a kind cutting board.
