Composition Board 351: Spalted White Oak & Walnut

Some boards are built around a single piece of wood.

Others are built around contrast.

This composition board combines four pieces of spalted white oak with three pieces of Oregon black walnut, arranged in varying widths to create rhythm, balance, and visual movement across the surface.

The spalting in the white oak brings unique patterns that could never be duplicated, while the deep color of the walnut provides warmth and definition. Together they create a board that feels both natural and thoughtfully composed.

Whether it's serving artisan cheeses, fresh bread, seasonal fruit, or a simple meal shared with friends, this piece is designed to be used, admired, and enjoyed.

After 40 years in professional kitchens, I've come to believe that some of life's best moments happen around a table. This board was made for those moments.
