*As natural wood is used, there may be individual differences in color and grain.
*As all items are handmade, they may differ slightly from the listed size and shape. We appreciate your understanding.
*When cutting anything other than dry items, wet both sides with water before use, then drain the water and use.
*Wash as soon as possible after use. We recommend scrubbing with a brush and water. Do not use more detergent than necessary, and rinse thoroughly if you do use it.
*After washing, wipe the entire surface thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth.
*The trick is to stand it up in a dish rack or cutting board stand so that it is suspended in the air.
*Store in a well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight.
*Do not use a dishwasher, as this may cause warping or cracking.
*The unique scent of ginkgo wood may be present, but it will fade with use.

The "woodpecker" cutting board is crafted from a single slab of domestically sourced ginkgo wood. Its fine, smooth texture and soft form beautifully adorn any space. Furthermore, ginkgo wood is soft and elastic, making it gentle on both knives and the cutting board itself, ensuring it can be cherished for a long time. As you use it, the ginkgo wood cutting board will develop a richer character, allowing you to enjoy its transformation with every meal you prepare.

woodpecker
Woodpecker is a woodworking brand founded by Kenji Fukui, who was born into a family of traditional wood turners in Gifu Prefecture.
He established his brand in 2008 with the concept of "living with wood." The brand's origin lies in a single cutting board Kenji Fukui made for his wife. After studying woodworking techniques and training at a furniture manufacturer, Fukui created a ginkgo wood cutting board at his wife's request. His wife's delight at its ease of use and beauty inspired Fukui to pursue "his own unique style of craftsmanship," leading to the establishment of woodpecker.
Fukui is thoroughly familiar with the weight, hardness, and density of various types of wood, and he creates tools that are perfectly suited for everyday living. He provides long-lasting tools that are carefully maintained, allowing you to enjoy the feel and aroma of natural materials with all your senses. Furthermore, he creates tools that make daily tasks more enjoyable. He is a craftsman who conveys the comfort of living with wood through these tools.
