Walnut AWB11 — 1100x165x27mm

American Black Walnut (Juglans nigra)

American Black Walnut is one of the most celebrated and sought-after hardwoods in the world — a timber of extraordinary richness, depth, and natural beauty that has been prized by furniture makers, gunsmiths, and craftspeople for generations. Its deep chocolate-brown to purplish-black heartwood, often with striking figuring and a lustrous natural sheen, gives it an unmatched visual presence that few timbers can rival. It is a wood of real prestige and enduring value.

It works superbly with both hand and machine tools, turns and carves beautifully, and responds to oils and waxes with a depth of colour and warmth that only improves with age. A premium North American hardwood of the very highest quality.
