We love Larch Wood’s Small Original Cutting Board. Perfectly proportioned, this board is sized to handle most jobs without becoming unwieldy. The vibrant wood grain pattern makes the board instantly distinct but it’s the details that really impress. Padded feet keep the board elevated so it says dry underneath and firmly in place. Finely sanded and sealed with a food-safe mixture of mineral oil and beeswax, the finished surface is so soft and smooth you have to feel it to believe it. |
When we set out to design a new product, we start with the best materials. Constructing a meal is the same: for great results, start with quality ingredients. We reach for the EVOO so often, we thought it deserved an honored place alongside the rest of your most beloved spices. | |
