A matched pair of wide black walnut slabs, sawn one after the other from the same log, so the grain mirrors itself when you open them like a book. Slab 05 is 7 ft 6 in long and 25 to 30 in wide, slab 06 is 7 ft 4 in long and 24 to 28 in wide, both 2 1/2 in thick. Long, mostly straight dark heartwood with a few small knots near the top end, cream sapwood along both edges, and bark on the edges.

Want them dried? Choose Air dried, $1,819 or Kiln dried, $2,419 (6 to 9% moisture) in the buying options above. Drying takes months, not weeks. We air dry the set on the stack first, then finish it at a commercial kiln if you chose kiln dried. We start the day you order, email you a ready date, and you pick it up when it is done. Rather put down a deposit? $845 holds it while it dries, with the balance at pickup. Send us a message.

Both slabs sell together as one set. One set, one of a kind. Once it sells, it comes off the shelf.
