Yakisugi.
Who has heard about this old, traditional technique of wood processing - already know that burnt wood become more resistant. After burning and cleaning with hand polishing the top layer of wood become so smooth, like natural leather in touch. That's why, when such a wood contact with water - it just flows down, without any delay and almost without penetrating inside the wood. Additionally to this method of natural fire conservation, for protecting a wood even more better usually is used natural linseed oil. I also use pure linseed oil which I just squeeze by myself at home.
Interesting to know, that linseed oil has the most better polymerization quality among all other kinds of oils. In contact with sun ultraviolet rays the oil, penetrated inside a wood became an extra strong natural polymer, which protects not only from water but also from fire too. But usually, in natural conditions, the whole process of polymerization can take a lot of time (it's depend of sun intensity). That's why I also use ultraviolet lights to speed up polymerization at night...
Anyway the whole creating process takes a lot of time, so you should wait little bit more for realisation, but as result you will get extra protected wooden items, which are just amazing on look and unbelievable smooth in touch.
It has no smell and doesn't absorb any smell.
It has no any glue, cause it made of solid wood.
It will never change this intense natural black colour.
It's the thing, which all the people buy and loves it just after first touch.
And that is what my Yakisugi kitchen about!
All these works not only can become a part of really stylish kitchen but also will serve you more longer then other accessories which usually are used by housewives.
As you've already understood, the whole process of wood processing and preservation - is total handwork. And of course all of my creations are totally eco-friendly, without any toxic elements. So with purchasing of such things you make your kitchen really sustainable and at most natural.
It also can be a really nice gift, which will inspired your loved persons to cook for you even with more lovely feelings.

As for this offer - it's about Large Yakisugi sushi set, which you can purchase in a few options:
- Pine board + double basic set (pine board dimensions: 24x44x4 in cm, or 9,5"x17,5"x1,6" in inches);
- Whole slice + double basic set (pine slice diameter: 35-45 in cm or 14"-18" in inches);
- 2 halves slice + double basic set (two halves together also have the same diameter like whole pine slice).
Pine board has non regular cutting shape from some sides, as you can see on photos, so dimensions could slightly differ.
Whole slice and 2 halves slice is raised slightly to make serving more easy.
Pine board is not so heavy like a slice of wood, so it isn't raised, but it could be if you like.
If you like you can also switch serving boards from this offer for boards from this:

Coming back to this offer, every "basic set" consist of:
1) small Yakisugi rest with a pair of bamboo Yakisugi chopsticks;

3) ceramic mini bowl for soy souse, handmade by my wife in Japanese wabi sabi style;

Every Large Yakisugi sushi set includes double "basic set" plus Large pine board or pine slice (depend of your choice). So basically you are buying Set for 2 persons. But I've add to this offer also an opportunity for purchasing in different options for 3 or 4 people.
Whole Large sushi set can be little bit cheaper if you are buying it without wooden bowl for wakame salad (1x wood bowl cost in set - 10 euros). Just write me please and I will create a special offer for you with discount.
If you have a really large company and looking for a sushi set for even more people, I guess it should be additional Large serving boards, so you should buy just a pair of Large sets. Or you can write me and I will create a special offer for you with additional "basic sets" or even without it, just only large serving boards with, or also without any sushi accesories - everything you will prefer ;)
