AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Superb rectangular serving board in thuya wood.

Decoration & Inlay:
- The base of the board is adorned with a geometric and floral inlay work of great finesse:
- A central star with a geometric pattern, its heart highlighted by a delicate natural mother-of-pearl cabochon that catches the light.
- A refined network of scrolls and volutes in light wood (citronnier or boxwood) forming a harmonious symmetrical composition.
- A peripheral gallery inlaid with checkerboard motifs and contrasting dark wood reserves (ebony/rosewood).

Practical features:
- Two ergonomic handles cut into the mass of the structure.
- Slightly raised edges ensuring a perfect grip.
- The reverse side of the board highlights the raw beauty and the speckled grain of the wood.

Condition:
The wood has preserved its original shine, warm patina, and the precision of its inlay decoration. The photos are an integral part of the description.
