Mosaic Handmade End-Grain Chopping Board
Handmade not Mass Made
This is a one-off geometric mosaic board I put together in my Southern Highlands workshop. It’s made by precisely fitting American Walnut and White Oak end-grain blocks to create a pattern that stands out on any bench-top.
Why I build them this way:
End-grain is better for your knives: Instead of cutting across the wood grain, your knife edge goes between the fibres. It keeps your blades sharper for much longer and stops the board from getting deep, ugly scars.
Built to last: I use Titebond III glue because it’s the gold standard for food safety and water resistance. It’s a solid, heavy board (3.5cm thick) that won’t slide around while you’re working.
Natural Finish: I’ve finished this with food-grade mineral oil and a local beeswax polish. No stains or chemicals—just the natural colour of the timber.
The Details:
Size: 43.5cm x 30.5cm x 3.6cm
Timber: Walnut (dark) and Oak (light).
Ready to ship: I’ll include a care sheet so you know how to keep the timber looking good for years.
