Black Walnut Sawn Wood
Known for centuries for its high stability and ease of use, Black Walnut lumber remains a top choice for woodworkers and designers. Moreover, this hardwood from the tall *Juglans nigra* tree in North America is known for its rich brown color and smooth finish. In fact, its strength and resistance to warping make it perfect for both strong structures and decorative uses like premium flooring, custom furniture, and detailed woodturning. Notably, Quartersawn Black Walnut is even stronger and shows unique vertical lines mixed with light and dark streaks from its growth rings and minerals.
Ohio Timber Works offers a steady supply of sustainable Black Walnut year-round, graded and processed to top standards. Furthermore, we ensure every board keeps the wood’s natural beauty while meeting strict quality standards. For instance, whether making heirloom furniture or restoring old buildings, our inventory provides reliable quality for projects big or small. Importantly, our careful selection means you get consistent results every time.
In addition to its beauty, Black Walnut is valued for its eco-friendly traits. Additionally, as a renewable resource, it absorbs carbon dioxide as it grows, and well-managed forests like ours support wildlife and healthy ecosystems. Moreover, its natural resistance to decay and pests means fewer chemical treatments, which fits eco-friendly building practices perfectly.
