Small round end grain chopping board made from Oak.
The checkerboard patter on this one was a stroke of luck, the Oak can sometimes all look the same before it's oiled, but I am so please with what we have here. Slightly bigger in size this board is still lightweight and easy to move around the kitchen with you, with plenty of surface area it would make a nice small cheese board.

End Grain Chopping Boards are great to use as an everyday item in the kitchen. The wood fibres are standing on end which allows your knife to sink slightly into the wood without cutting the fibres. This also helps to keep your knives sharper for longer.
End Grain Chopping Boards have been finished using the Spoon Oil, a mix of coconut oil, mineral oil, beeswax, and vitamin E, then with a second layer of beeswax.
To care for your end grain cutting board wash in warm soapy water, and please do not put your end grain board in the dishwasher. To maintain your board do not leave soaking in water, keep out of direct sunlight, and if you would like to refresh your finish overtime you can use a beeswax or a coconut oil.
