Spec piece made from walnut sapwood and heartwood (allegedly) from the same tree.
Another photo showing off the grain.

Absolutely beautiful
I love the colour of that lighter wood
I would never be able to actually use this cutting board, I would just want to look at it
Thank you!
The lighter wood is walnut sapwood, often called blonde walnut. I also love the color.
Lol I've heard that before but I always try to encourage people to use them anyway. Things of beauty still yearn for purpose afterall.
