Walnut is a dense hardwood, long prized as one of the most desirable woods in furniture making and cabinetry. Most commercially available walnut is steamed, resulting in a somewhat washed out, if consistent, color scheme. In the case of this reclaimed walnut, the lumber has been kiln dried without steaming. As a result, all the natural beauty of the wood is intact, and there is often strong color contrast between the cream colored sapwood and the chocolate colored heartwood.
We sell 22 x 10 Charcuterie Boards on our Edge Grain page. Because of the size of the lumber we get, not all of our Charcuterie Boards are fully 10 inches wide. So if they are short by more than a quarter inch, we sell them here on our Seconds page. There is nothing wrong with this board, other than it is slightly smaller in width than our normal boards.
We can always add engraving if you'd like to personalize it.
