It supplies one of the most valuable and for centuries one of the most sought-after woods. The European walnut grows like the American walnut individually or in small, widely distributed groups, often in gardens or parks. Since it is not a typical forest tree, but only occurs as a single tree, its wood is very rare. The walnut Maser shown here is a European walnut that has been refined with an American walnut. The beautiful walnut burl veneer is used for exclusive interior design, in the manufacture of furniture, panelling and equipments wood in automobiles.
