^^^ this https://goo.gl/tw6CG4 is probably closest to what you want, but hardly a size of a saucer. A typical saucer is 6 ¾ to 8 ¾ inches across. Not really big enough to cut bread or something cooked.
What kind of pattern would you like to get?

There are nice myrtlewood boards available on line. They're made in Oregon. I also saw some att Etsy. Quite beautiful actually!

Please don't use a hard cutting board (glass or stone, etc.), if you value your knives. Ouch!

No, I would never use those with a good knife. I have used small marble or ceramic pieces for a block or wedge of cheese.

My Wüsthof-Trident knives agree with you completely!

I have some white ironstone plates that are the size of saucers. There is a lot of this around online and in antique stores. They are very strong, and the white goes with everything.
Or, I also have a few sets of cocktail plates from Williams Sonoma, so you could look for those.
Not sure what will go with your china, but if you google, tidbit plates, or canapé plates, or bread plates, you should be able to find a variety.

When I say "pattern" I mean something that will blend with whatever dinning set I have.

Crystal ball is broken if your dishes are open stock - go on-line and check for bread plates. You will find discontinued patterns at sites specializing in replacements.

Take a piece of your dinnerware for size/color/pattern and work your way through the usual sources. WalMart, Bell, Williams Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Bed Bath & Beyond, even grocery stores such as Kroger and Publix can be a good source. Mix and match!

What are you cutting on such a small plate?

Thanks but, all of the images I have found based on your suggestion for "bread plates" are concave.

Use a porcelain tile. Add cork pads if necessary.
