Figured Maple Block with Cherry Stripe

A true showpiece, this handcrafted spalted maple block with a cherry stripe features extraordinary natural figuring, dramatic color variation, and remarkable chatoyancy — the shimmering depth and movement that makes the wood appear to change as the light shifts.

Measuring 12.6" x 12.5" x 1.5" and weighing 5.4 pounds, this substantial block is built for both beauty and performance. Integrated finger grooves along the sides provide a clean, ergonomic way to lift and move the board with ease.

Spalting is a natural process that creates intricate lines and contrasting tones, making every board completely unique. Combined with the luminous character of maple, the result is a one-of-a-kind piece that is as functional as it is stunning.
