Black Walnut | Rare Deep Brown・Moisture-Resistant & Stable・Luxury Customization
Premium black walnut is a treasured native wood of the United States. Featuring natural dark tones ranging from brown to chocolate, its grain is as fine as satin with rich, layered hues. With exceptional moisture resistance ideal for humid climates, it exudes sophisticated elegance.
Why is black walnut more expensive?
- Black walnut trees have a long growth cycle, requiring 50-100 years to mature, whereas most commercial trees become profitable in about 15 years.
- Due to historical overharvesting, American black walnut now constitutes only 1% of all temperate deciduous forests. Designated as a restricted species for sustainable forestry, its rarity has increased.
- Production costs are exceptionally high - with abundant waste from sapwood and knots, only the heartwood (under 30% yield) qualifies for furniture crafting.
