Overview

European Walnut is also called English Walnut, French Walnut, etc. according to its place of origin. It is common practice to steam or stain the lighter-coloured sapwood to match the colour of the heartwood, which is greyish or light to dark greyish-brown. In addition, infiltrations of colouring matter produce a darker-coloured streaky figure to the wood, sometimes irregularly distributed throughout the heartwood.

The grain of European Walnut is slightly open and usually straight, but may be wavy or irregular and the texture is usually coarse, but uniform.

A fairly hard to tough wood with a relatively high resistance to splitting, European Walnut works easily and well with both hand and machine tools. It can be glued satisfactorily, and takes an excellent polish, and its decorative pattern is particularly highlighted by silky lustre varnish.
