These beautiful mancala boards are made from solid walnut or cherry wood. They're sanded smooth and finished with a traditional hand-rubbed tung oil finish that highlights the natural wood grain. Each board comes with a set of glass playing pieces in a cotton bag. We don't use stains or dyes, so the cherry board starts out a little lighter than what's often called "cherry." With time, the color will deepen to a rich reddish brown that we find much prettier than the artificial red "cherry finish" you'll find elsewhere. DIMENSIONS - 18" long x 6.75" wide x 1" thick - 5/8" glass pieces (some variation in size) FEATURES - Handmade in our family-owned shop - Made from solid or walnut cherry wood - Comes with a set of multi-colored glass playing pieces in a cotton bag - Optional custom engraving: we can engrave names, dates, or a message on the back or side of the board. Select the "Custom engraving" option and enter your request when you place your order.

For Wooden Toy Turtle - Customized With NameThis is a beautiful piece of work. The turtle is cute, but the smooth finish is gorgeous. We bought it for a new baby gift, and the personalization is lovely. The shipping amount was modest, and it arrived faster than expected. Most happy with this, our first purchase. Showed to some friends, and they wanted information to see other items, too. We will be back!
