Product Description Our beautiful new, meticulously crafted cutting boards are made from bamboo, one of the world's most beautiful and renewable resources. Bamboo is actually a naturally occurring grass and some varieties can grow one foot in a day. It is 16% harder than Maple, so it provides a perfect cutting surface. Bamboo holds the promise of a sustainable, cost effective and ecologically responsible alternative to the widespread clear cutting of our world's precious timberland. The Cheese and Bread Cutting Board comes in a unique honey-striped finish using natural and honey tone bamboo glued together with food grade glue. .com This cutting board is not only beautiful with its dark center and light edges, its also an environmentally responsible product. While the board has the rich grain found in wood products, it is actually made of bamboo, a completely renewable grass. Aside from its positive impact on the environment, bamboo has become the cutting-board material of choice among professional chefs as it has a longer lifespan than traditional hardwood boards. Bamboo is 16-percent harder and lasts three times longer than maple (the former material of choice) and weighs 1/3 less than oak so is easier to lift and serve from after slicing. Another perk is that bamboo absorbs little moisture so is not likely to experience the shrinking and swelling that can eventually warp hardwood blocks. Measuring 14-1/2 inches long, 11 inches wide, and ¾ inch high, this board is the perfect size for slicing and serving bread or serving an assortment of soft cheeses. As with wood blocks, this cutting board should be periodically wiped down with mineral oil to maintain its finish. --Cristina Vaamonde
