Images are for illustrative purposes only. When you touch it, you can feel the warmth of the wood from your palm. People tend to think that solid wood items are difficult to maintain, but that's actually not the case. If it's just crumbs from bread or sweets, just brush it off, but if you're concerned about dirt, just wipe it with a damp cloth or rinse it off with water. If it starts to feel dry, you can treat it with oil to give it a nice shine and bring out the wood grain. The more you use it carefully, the more the taste will change over time. I would be happy if you could feel the joy of growing your own. Feeling safe when touching wood Enjoy some baked goods such as cookies to accompany your coffee. Pair your tea with seasonal dried sweets. Not only can you use it as a small plate, but you can also use it as a teacup to hold a teacup or soba choko. It would also be nice to use it as a tray to store small accessories such as earrings and brooches. You can also stack them, so it's a good idea to have one for your family and for guests.
