Steamed Walnut Edge Grain Butcher Block Countertop
The Unique Beauty of Steamed Walnut
Discover the stunning, golden-brown color that only Steamed Walnut can provide. Our process uses countertops with up to 40% sapwood, creating the perfect canvas for steaming. This technique extracts and blends the wood's natural tones, resulting in a vibrant, consistent color that cannot be achieved by any other means. If you're looking for a beautiful, one-of-a-kind wood countertop, Steamed Walnut is a stunning choice.

Steamed 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 Steamed Walnut contains up to 40% sapwood. The steaming process extracts color and disperses it throughout the sapwood, resulting in a warm golden brown color. This color is blended through the steaming process.
