The wood used in this cutting board, starting from the center piece going to the end:
Center- Paduak (Africa), Ambrosia Maple (North America), Paduak (Africa), Ambrosia Maple (North America), Paduak (Africa), Ambrosia Maple (North America), Paduak (Africa), Ambrosia Maple (North America), and Paduak (Africa) for the end pieces. I use order the center piece as a focal point and then I match contrasting colors, or eye catching colors, matching outward and finish it off with pieces of Paduak that has lots of contrasting grain/depth in it.
I have finished the cutting board with mineral oil/butchers block oil.
Most of the cutting boards I have made are said to be too pretty to be used But I made these two to be used as a cutting board. You can still use them as a serving tray or as a decorative piece in your kitchen if you choose to.
Measurements of this cutting board: 13 x 11 1/2 x 1 1/4.
Cleaning/care instructions will ship with the board.
Ask me about custom sizes or shapes I can work with you on those.
