In the days when all furniture was made by hand, and when material, design and workmanship 
were of the best, Walnut was conceded to have no superior as a cabinet-wood. 
The best furniture produced in Italy during the Renaissance, in France in the time of the Louis, 
and in the England of the Georges, was of Walnut. Later replicas of these fine pieces were by 
preference made of American Walnut as soon as it became available. 
American Walnut depends for its beauty on inherent color and on its pleasing figure and depths 
so satisfying to the cultivated taste. It has none of the cruder boldness or sharp contrasts of color 
and figure characteristic of some woods hitherto commonly accepted. 
American Walnut furniture for these reasons is the strong choice of those who desire true “lifetime” 
or heirloom furniture. Let us add one important word — 
"BE SURE YOUR WALNUT IS ALL WALNUT.” 
Write for a copy of the Walnut Brochure de luxe, and enjoy the interesting history 
of this supreme cabinet-wood. Beautifully illustrated. Sent FREE upon request.
