Rustic Walnut Wide Plank (Face Grain) Countertop
Rustic Walnut Countertop Details
Wide plank countertops (also called face grain) are made with the board face turned up, using random width planks that run the full length of the countertop. Our Countertops are made with a good top surface and four good sides. This means the bottom surface might have imperfections. Selecting the High-Grade Bottom Surface option allows you to have the bottom surface be the same grade as the top surface and four sides. All of our Rustic Walnut wood countertops are custom-made to your specifications at our manufacturing facility in Ohio. Wide plank (face grain) wood also makes great desktops and table tops.
Please Note: Because each piece of wood has its own unique character, grain and color will vary from the sample images shown. All wood countertops are custom made to order. All orders revised or cancelled after going into production (within 24 hours after order is received) will have a restocking fee of up to 50%.
Warranty Information: Please carefully read all warranty information, including installation instructions and timeframe.
About Our Rustic Walnut
Rustic Walnut Countertops are made up of 40% Sap Wood and 60% Heart wood. These pieces are full of character. From their filled knots to their other filled texture imperfections, all pieces have tons of character. Not to mention, all the imperfections are filled, so no functionality is lost due to the rustic construction of these beautiful countertops. Due to the rustic nature of these boards, they have broad color variations that make every piece unique. No one is quite like another, making every single piece one of a kind. If you’re looking for a unique, custom piece that will turn heads, Rustic Walnut will impress.
Rustic Walnut Wide Plank Countertops will have filled knots.
Rustic Walnut Countertop Options
Sizing
We can make your countertop up to 1 ¾” thick, 84'' wide, and 138" long.
Finishes
You can get your countertop with a variety of finish options, including acrylic polyurethane, and mineral oil. Get a clear finish or choose from a large selection of stain color options.
If you want to finish the countertop yourself, we can also ship the wood unfinished. However, we do not recommend leaving it unfinished since wood can easily absorb moisture and crack or warp over time.
Edge Detail and Texture
Further customize your countertop with a variety of artisan edge details. Go for a natural look with rustic or faux live edge. For those who like a symmetrical appearance, we offer a variety of other details like beveled edge and bullnose. Further control the look of your countertop with a texture expertly applied by our craftsmen.
If you prefer to have your countertop sanded smooth and have no texture, be sure to select NONE in the Textures Options.
Wire Brushed texture works best on wood with an open grain, such as Walnut. On other tighter grain wood species the Wire Brushed Texture will not have the same effect and will not be as visible.
Cuts and Prepping
Need to leave a cutout for your sink or stove? Want custom joint prepping to make your countertop easy to install? Let us know by selecting Custom CNC Cuts and/or Angle Cuts and Joint Prepping.
Most of our woodworkers are craftsmen from the local Amish community, providing great attention to quality and detail at every step of the manufacturing process.

Your new Hardwood Lumber Company countertop is protected by a one-year warranty against defects in material and workmanship. To ensure your warranty remains valid, any unfinished countertops must be finished and installed within one week of delivery, and you must follow our Countertop Finishing and Installation Guide precisely. Natural wood characteristics, such as minor warping due to environmental changes (often correctable with proper installation) or variations in grain and color, are not considered defects. The warranty does not cover scuffs or scratches on prefinished countertops caused by installation or normal wear and tear. Specific conditions that will void the warranty include not adhering to the finishing and installation guide, failing to support overhangs greater than 10 inches, or not properly protecting cutouts for stoves (from heat) and sinks (from moisture). Additionally, countertops with sink cutouts that have a Mineral Oil Finish or Salad Bowl Finish are not covered under this warranty

To keep your hardwood countertop looking its best and performing well for years to come, proper care is essential. If your countertop arrived unfinished, it's crucial to apply a food-safe finish to all surfaces (top, bottom, and all edges) within one week of delivery. For countertops finished with oil, re-apply a quality butcher block oil or conditioner approximately twice a month, or whenever the wood begins to look dry, to keep it hydrated and protected. Clean your countertop regularly with mild soap and warm water, wiping up spills promptly. For disinfection, a diluted white vinegar solution can be used. Avoid abrasive cleaners and never let water stand on the surface for extended periods. For specialized finishes like Rubio Monocoat, use the recommended cleaning and maintenance products to preserve its unique properties.
Rustic Walnut
The sapwood of walnut is creamy white, while the heartwood is light brown to dark chocolate brown, occasionally with a purplish cast and darker streaks. Walnut is generally straight-grained, but sometimes with wavy or curly grain that produces an attractive and decorative figure. Walnut works easily with hand and machine tools, and nails, screws and glues well. It holds paint and stain very well for an exceptional finish and is readily polished. Our Rustic Walnut contains up to 40% sapwood and 60% heartwood, featuring character-filled pieces that include knots and other texture imperfections, along with a broad range of color variations. These truly unique pieces stand out from the rest.
