Wood Species

Our Walnut Live Edge Tabletops are made from kiln-dried walnut wood, one of the most sought-after exotic hardwoods because of its strength, durability, and natural beauty. The deep, warm brown tones of walnut with lighter sapwood streaks make each tabletop a work of art. Walnut’s dense grain gives a smooth finish and enhances its durability, making it perfect for high-traffic areas like dining tables, restaurant tables, or hardwood desktops.

Kiln drying stabilizes the wood by removing excess moisture, ensuring it won’t warp or crack over time. For more info on walnut, check out the Black Walnut page on Wood Database. For more on live edge designs, check out our blog post What is Live Edge Wood.

The live edge preserves the natural shape of the wood, so you have a tactile and visual connection to the tree it came from. Whether you’re going for rustic or modern, our walnut live edge tabletops fit in with any style.

Care

To keep your Walnut Live Edge Tabletop in great shape, maintenance is required. Walnut wood is durable, but proper care will help keep its natural beauty:

  • Dust Regularly: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the surface.
  • Wipe with a Damp Cloth: For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap. Make sure to dry the surface immediately with a soft cloth to avoid moisture damage.
  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, chemicals, or alcohol-based products that could damage the finish.
  • Use Coasters and Placemats: Protect your tabletop from heat, moisture, and spills by using coasters, placemats, or trivets. This will prevent staining and protect the wood from wear.

Follow these simple steps, and your walnut live edge table will look great for years to come.

Live Edge Orientation

We offer customizable live edge slope directions to fit your style and space:

  • Live Edge Slope Up: This gives the tabletop a traditional look with the natural edge sloping up, highlighting the grain and adding a sculptural element. It’s the focal point of any room.
  • Live Edge Slope Down: For a modern, flowing look, choose live edge slope down. This creates an organic, contemporary look that stands out in any space, perfect for those who want to make a design statement.
Live Edge Configuration

We offer several edge configurations to customize:

  • Live Edge on One Side: Perfect for tables against a wall or in smaller spaces, this option has a live edge on one side and a straight edge on the other. This combines the beauty of a live edge with the practicality of a straight edge.
  • Live Edge on Both Sides: For a more dramatic look, choose live edges on both sides. This option shows off the full natural beauty of walnut wood, perfect for dining tables, bar tops, or centrally positioned restaurant tables. The dual live edge creates a sculptural shape that draws the eye from every angle.
C-Channel

For larger tables or tables in high-traffic areas like restaurant tables or bar tops, we offer the option to add a C-channel. This reinforcement is made from high-grade metal and is installed flush into the bottom of the table, so the surface remains stable and won’t warp over time. Hardtwood will route the bottom of the surface so the channel sits flush, so there’s no interference with base or mounting hardware.

The C-channel is invisible from above, so the natural beauty of the walnut is preserved while adding structural support. For those who want extra durability for their tabletop, especially in commercial use, the C-channel is a great option for long-term performance.
