Such a birch bark coaster (β14 cm diameter) is a very characteristic traditional and functional item with several natural advantages:
πΏ Properties
Moisture-resistant β birch bark contains natural resins (betulin), which make the material resistant to moisture. It does not absorb water and does not mold as easily as untreated wood.
Antibacterial β natural substances in the bark inhibit the development of bacteria and fungi. Therefore, bark has historically been used for dishes, bread storage, and food
preservation.
Decay-resistant β the outer layer of the bark is distinctly durable, so the coaster will last long even in the kitchen.
Natural and environmentally friendly β birch bark is a renewable material, usually obtained from fallen or properly processed trees.
Heat-resistant β it works well as a coaster for hot dishes, as it does not conduct heat quickly and does not crack from heat.
