Heirloom Live-Edge Black Walnut Slabs — Natural Grain, Air-Dried (8 ft average)

There’s poetry in the edge of a tree — the place where bark meets heartwood, where life becomes lumber. These live-edge walnut slabs carry that poetry intact. Each board, approximately eight feet long, retains the natural contour of its growth, with whorled figure and traces of bark preserved.

Milled and stacked decades ago in the Sierra Foothills, these slabs tell of patient drying and slow beauty — the kind only walnut can give. Their dark, chocolate tones and golden streaks invite transformation into tables, shelves, or art installations. To cut them is to collaborate with nature; to finish them is to reveal what time began.
