Elevate your build with our 1.75" Black Walnut Slabs. Deep brown heartwood, lively grain, and both edges left natural. Each slab is kiln-dried, and planed smooth for a premium, ready-to-work canvas.
Additional sanding may be required depending on preference.
*Please note*
These pieces may or may not contain the bark in-tact on the live edges. Bark on the live edges becomes brittle during the drying process and often falls off during handling and processing of these boards.

Edges: 2 natural live edges; No glue ups! 1 true piece

Why Walnut (and why ours)
-Iconic dark heartwood with creamy sap accents and dramatic cathedrals
-Finishes to extraordinary depth with oil or hard wax; showpiece-grade when lit well
-Select stock chosen for stable, attractive live-edge profiles
Tolerances & character:
±1" on length/width; natural edge varies by design (that’s the beauty)
Expect tasteful features: feathering, curl, micro checks, knots or cracks
Finishing & build notes:
Hard wax oil or oil-poly for high contrast and hand-rubbed depth
Coffee/side tables: mount to a rigid base; allow seasonal movement with slotted fasteners
Floating shelves/mantels: use heavy-duty brackets into studs; test fit before final finish
Every slab is unique - photos are representative. We’ll hand-select within your chosen bracket for grain, color, and edge character that read premium.
