Walnut is known for its rich, dark brown color and striking grain patterns. It's a durable hardwood that's often used in high-quality furniture and woodworking projects.
Maple, on the other hand, offers a lighter color compared to walnut, with creamy white to light golden hues. Maple is prized for its durability and resistance to moisture.
African padauk is known for its vibrant reddish-orange color, which deepens with age and exposure to light. Padauk would add a pop of color and visual interest to the board, creating contrast with the darker walnut and lighter maple.
When combined, these three woods would create a visually stunning cutting board that's not only aesthetically pleasing but also durable and functional. The contrasting colors and textures make it a standout piece in any kitchen, while the combination of hardwoods would ensure its longevity and resilience to knife cuts and moisture.
Thicknesses can vary from 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 inches.
Every board we sell is treated with several coats of food safe mineral oil and then a thin layer of bee's wax is applied. The board is ready to use right out of the box.
