Walnut tree wood handle

Walnut is a heterogenous wood with shades going from light brown to deep brown veined with black. Several species of walnut trees are generally used, such as European, American and Australian walnut.
Often used to make furniture, it is also commonly found in cars or used to make cupboards due to its robustness.
Stabilised walnut doesn't suffer the years and is therefore a favourite for the creation of sculptures and trophies.
Due to its stability and solidity, it was used to make propellers in the early days of military aviation!
