Turtle Cheese and Cracker Board
This natural edge black walnut cheese and cracker board showcases an intricate inlay crafted from maple and sterling silver, designed in the shape of a turtle. The warm, rich tones of the walnut are complemented by the lighter inlay, creating a striking contrast that enhances its aesthetic appeal. Finished with nontoxic, food-safe walnut oil and beeswax, the surface not only highlights the wood's unique grain patterns but also provides a protective barrier ideal for serving a variety of cheeses and snacks. This functional yet artistic piece is perfect for entertaining or as a unique addition to any kitchen decor.

A little history
I love Black Walnut—from furniture to serving food, it is a gorgeous wood to work with and use.
I got the idea to make charcuterie boards from oddly shaped scraps last year and our family has put the initial prototype I made to good use ever since.
A board like this makes food look tasty and inviting.
Don’t worry about putting food directly on the board, even if it stains (which tomato juice does, I can tell you from experience), as any marks just enhance the wood and give you a good story to tell later.
