<h3><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>What is Walnut Wood?</strong></span></h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Walnut wood comes from the Juglans genus, and while many people assume that all types of walnut wood are one and the same, there are various types. Relative to the wood type and drying method, the colors, and sturdiness of walnut can vary&mdash;it can be whitewashed, reddish, flat brown, or dark purple, highly durable or soft and fuzzy, for instance.</p>
<p>While there are many walnut species, let&rsquo;s focus on the primary properties of Black Walnut, which is also often referred to as American Walnut:</p>
