Colour and Workability
Walnut hardwood is a favourite among woodworkers and crafters not only because of its durability, but also because of the striking difference in colour between heartwood and sapwood, and its variance in tone from chocolate brown to gray or even to purple hues. Walnut is undoubtedly one of the most popular wood species in North America, as it’s easy to be amazed by the gorgeous figuring, rich aroma, and wide range of colours it provides. Walnut maintains a high level of hardness, while still being workable for both advanced and beginner wood turners.
