American Walnut
Explore our American walnut floors, also known as Black Walnut. Sourced from the eastern United States, this distinctive timber is prized for its deep chocolate brown tones and richly figured grain. Natural features including curl, crotch and burl patterns are enhanced by contrasting pale sapwood, creating a floor with striking depth, character and visual impact.
