European Walnut EW01 — 750x125x17mm

European Walnut (Juglans regia)

European Walnut is one of the most celebrated and sought-after timbers on the continent — a wood with a rich, complex character that has been prized by furniture makers, gunsmiths, and craftspeople for centuries. The warm chocolate-brown heartwood, often streaked with grey, purple, and olive tones, has a depth and richness that is hard to match, and the grain can range from straight and even to beautifully wild and figured.

This batch is notably figured — with swirling, irregular grain patterns that catch the light and give each piece a lively, three-dimensional quality that sets it apart from standard walnut. It works and finishes superbly, responding well to hand tools and producing a smooth, lustrous surface.
