This is a cutting board made from Tsuga (Hemlock) wood, approximately 110 years old. This material has been used as a high-grade building material. It has a color similar to cedar and cypress, but with a denser grain and higher density. The natural curve with one "ear" (edge with bark) gives it a stylish finish. Length: 23cm Width: 17-18.5cm Thickness: 1.9cm Weight: 420g It is an easy-to-handle size. It is a slightly harder material than cypress. Please understand that this is a natural material and may warp over time. There are a few small chips.
