Kalimba-Noyer Noir

Black walnut is a prized hardwood native to the eastern and midwestern regions of the United States. Renowned for its distinctive grain, color, and physical properties, it finds extensive use in furniture, flooring, and especially, musical instrument making. Black walnut is a highly favored wood for instruments due to its unique characteristics that contribute to exceptional tone and aesthetics.

Black walnut produces a well-balanced tone, characterized by warm, rich low-end, clear and bright midrange, and sweet, mellow high-end. Its unique wood structure allows for the production of rich overtones, resulting in a fuller, more three-dimensional sound.
