Please Note

Paulownia wood is naturally lightweight, quick-drying, and gentle on knife edges. Over time, small knife marks, colour changes, and natural wood variations may develop as part of the board’s character and everyday use.

To help maintain the wood over time, occasional application of food-safe mineral oil is recommended.
