Spalted Maple Serving Board – Purpleheart & Osage Orange Accents

The organic character of Spalted Maple meets fine lines of Purpleheart and Osage Orange in a composition that balances natural movement with deliberate detail.

This handcrafted serving board brings together the intricate markings of Spalted Maple and the rich color of two contrasting hardwoods. Thin stripes of deep purple Purpleheart and golden Osage Orange run down the center, adding a restrained touch of color against the maple's lighter tones.

One natural live edge preserves the wood's organic character, while a centered handle framed by raised shoulders gives the board a distinctive silhouette. The interplay of spalting, clean accent lines, and sculpted shape creates a piece with both visual interest and quiet elegance.

At nearly 17 inches long and weighing 4 pounds, this substantial board is well suited for serving cheeses, charcuterie, bread, or an assortment of appetizers. Its distinctive figure also makes it a beautiful piece to display between gatherings.
