An overhead photograph showing a side-by-side comparison of two different wooden boards on a white marble countertop. On the left is a cherry and maple end-grain cutting board with a large houndstooth pattern, being used for food preparation. A chef's knife rests on the board next to sliced cucumbers, a whole cucumber, a green bell pepper, red potatoes, cherry tomatoes, garlic cloves, and rosemary sprigs. On the right is a lighter-colored, live-edge curly maple face-grain charcuterie board with a sweeping, cathedral grain pattern, used for presentation. It is artfully arranged with various cheeses, cured meats, grapes, figs, sliced pears and apples, crackers, nuts, a honeycomb, a small jar of jam, and miniature white pumpkins.
