For the realization of walnut floors, we use the high-quality essence of the European walnut, a wood recognized as one of the best ever for quality, durability and ease of processing. It is semi-hard by strong fiber and was historically used for the construction of antique furniture and valuable wooden floors during the period of Queen Anne.
The characteristic chromaticity and the differences in tonality compared to the American walnut tree, make it an essence able to surprise and fascinate beyond the confines of time.
Thanks to its elegance and the particular design of the grain, European walnut wood is highly sought for in the field of luxury furniture where parquet becomes a real piece of furniture capable of enhancing any setting.
In addition, the majestic roots rich in veins, are used to produce the famous "root" or walnut root that is greatly appreciated in cabinet making to make inserts on classic furniture, caskets and various objects

AVAILABLE WORKING PROCESSES
Being an already precious essence and particularly rich in colours and colour variations, Lignum Venetia proposes European walnut wood in some variants: smoothed, hand-planed or worked with needlecord effect, without any addition at all of coloured pigments in order to enhance the sinuous designs of the typical vein of this wood. For those who want a fine and refined parquet, we propose an original bleached model characterized by hand ragging that gives the walnut a velvety effect both to the eye and to the touch.
For European walnut floors we recommend the following processes: sanding, light brushing, hand planing, needlecord.
