Caring for Your Honu Pieces

Your Honu Living resin and timber pieces are designed to bring beauty to everyday moments β€” from relaxed grazing nights to special gatherings with friends.

With a little love and care, your boards, bowls, knives, and coasters will stay looking beautiful for years to come.

Here are a few simple tips to help you look after them.

🧼 Hand Wash Only

Our resin and timber pieces prefer a gentle clean.

  • Wash with warm soapy water
  • Use a soft sponge or cloth
  • Dry immediately with a towel

🚫 Please avoid the dishwasher β€” the heat and harsh detergents can damage both the resin and timber.

🌿 Nourish the Timber

Timber is a natural material and loves a little hydration.

Every few weeks (depending on use), apply:

  • Food-safe mineral oil
  • Grapeseed Oil

This helps keep the timber moisturised, prevents cracking, and keeps your board looking fresh.

β˜€οΈ Avoid Extreme Temperatures

To keep your pieces in their best shape:

  • Avoid direct sunlight for long periods
  • Keep away from ovens, stovetops, and heaters
  • Don’t expose them to extreme cold or heat

Sudden temperature changes can cause timber to warp or resin to expand.

πŸ’› A Little Tip from Honu Living

When creating a grazing board, we love placing baking paper under cheeses or antipasto items.

It helps protect the resin and gives your board that effortless, styled grazing look.
