Popular Types of Walnut Cabinets

The two most popular types of walnut are Persian and Black.  The color ranges from a creamy white in the sapwood to a dark brown in the heartwood of the tree.  The final coloring also depends on how it is dried.

Kiln Dried or Air Dried Wood Cabinets?

A kiln dried wood will have a dull brown appearance where an air dried wood will have a purplish brown tone.  Walnut is stable and solid with a tight grain making it the perfect choice for your new kitchen cabinetry.
