    I came across this very nice vintage wooden circle that looks to me like a cutting board on the back. It has some scratches to indicate it was used like that too. Could this be a cutting board, or is it a plaque? It doesn't seem to be signed or dated so I am at a loss information PXL_20230106_222026490.jpg PXL_20230106_222019294.jpg PXL_20230106_222057719.jpg PXL_20230106_222048303.jpg PXL_20230106_222034238.MP.jpg . It is 12 inches across and .75" deep

    I'd think that was the lid to something. And an amateur work.

    I tried to Google search that term you said and didn't get any results. What exactly is a round toowit?

    A funny way to say "around to it." As in, I'll do it when I get around to it.

    I think it was back in the 80s or so that my Dad had a little round wooden thing that was a "roundtuit."

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    It could be a cutting board, or perhaps somebody used it as one even if that was not the original purpose. Or it could be a lid, as Debora mentioned.

    When I was a child my mother and a friend of hers painted two small cutting boards. My mother's had a painting of a rooster. Just a rooster, not a scene like yours, @Grandmasattic and the board was shaped differently than this one.
