At Danl, even our standard boards are far from ordinary. Whether you choose a classic single-wood style or a visually striking mixed-wood design, each board is built to highlight the natural beauty and unique character of hardwood.
Wood Options
We offer a curated selection of domestic and exotic hardwoods, all chosen for their durability, food safety, and stunning grain patterns.
Single Wood Boards
Maple – Light in tone with a smooth, tight grain. A classic choice for clean, modern kitchens.
Cherry – Warm, reddish-brown with a deepening patina over time.
Walnut – Rich, dark brown tones with beautiful grain depth—our most popular option.
Multi-Wood Designs
For a distinctive and eye-catching look, we also offer boards crafted from a combination of premium hardwoods. These mixed-wood designs showcase the contrast between light and dark tones, rich grain patterns, and the natural character of each species.
Woods commonly used in these boards include:
Maple – Light, smooth, and classic
Walnut – Deep brown with striking grain variation
Cherry – Warm reddish hues that darken beautifully over time
Purpleheart – Naturally vibrant purple with a dense, exotic feel
Ash – Light with bold grain lines for added texture
Padauk – Bright orange-red with strong contrast
White Oak – Durable with a prominent grain and golden tone
Each board is individually composed based on wood availability and the desired visual effect. No two are the same—and that's exactly the point.
