Default cutting board with edelweiss
A very simple work to decorate a cutting board.
The wood is elm: not very good to carve, but fantastic grain. The finish is raw linseed oil.

That is a beautiful piece. I would hang it on the wall but I could never chop food on it.

Very nicely done. The grain sets off the carving beautifully.

This is exactly my intent. Anyway the wood is not suitable to choop food.
