Sapele is a beautiful hardwood from Africa that is often called "African Mahogany." This cutting board is not only beautiful, but also durable and functional. You can customize it with your name, initials, or a message of your choice. Whether you use it for chopping, serving, or displaying, this cutting board will add a touch of musical flair to your kitchen. Order yours today and rock your cooking with style!
Get it however you like:
1. With no engraving.
2. With no engraving and upgrade with a display stand.
3. With no engraving and upgrade to 2 oz.board butter (a small amount once a month will make your board new. And this 2 oz tub will last you years).
4. Or the ultimate upgrade - engrave it with over 20+ different designs or come up with your own (just message me). If you upgrade to the engraving, you receive the display stand and board butter as a free bonus!
These are medium-sized boards that make for great charcuterie or presentation boards or even use as a hotplate. If you would like a larger cutting/charcuterie board or something made from other exotic woods, please see my other listings.
Also - it goes without saying but wood has natural variations in its grain and pattern. Each cutting board I make is a unique one-of-a-kind product.
Be sure to select which design you'd like in the personalization box. Don't like any of those? no problem - I'll work with you to make something you want and like!

Meet the Maker
What a long, strange trip it's been! A short bio of me goes like this: I have a 30 year career in the non-profit sector including 16 years in higher education as a Dean of Online Programs and Assistant Professor. I even was a former "teacher of the year" winner at my college. But Covid and variety of other factors caused an awakening: I want to work with wood!
So I started the process of creating my own small business which involves laser engraving and wood working. I have 3 industrial lasers, a CNC and (so far) still 10 fingers. So far, so good, right???
My goal is easy - I try to make rustic modern designs that appeal to a variety of styles and decor. One of the things I do that's a bit different is I use exotic woods (from South America, Africa, Asia and Central America). These woods you can't get in the "big box" stores and have very unique patterns and colors different than the typical walnut, cherry or maple (which I use too!)
The end result is I make one-of-a-kind creations that are sure to really warm your home and elicit ooh's and aah's from your guests.
How it’s Made
All my cutting boards are hand made to order! After I choose the patterns of wood (color combinations), I glue them together and plane down. Next comes cutting the board to the exact side, often using my CNC to create the intricate shapes and designs. Next comes what I describe as the "gauntlet" of sanding using 6 different grits of sandpaper to get a glass-like finish. Finally comes the "oil bath" using a food grade mineral oil/wax blend followed by a cutting board wax to give it a "velvety" feel to the fingers. Then it gets packaged up and on its way to you!
