Broad-Bodied Deep-Textured Toad Head Wenwan Walnut Pair — 36.0mm x 41.0mm | HMT-1504C
Verfügbarkeit für Abholungen konnte nicht geladen werden
A well-matched Toad Head Wenwan walnut pair with a broad, compact body, substantial shell structure, and naturally recessed texture. Measuring 36.0mm x 41.0mm, the pair has a noticeably wide profile relative to its height, giving it the grounded and full-bodied character associated with classic Toad Head walnuts.
The shells feature a mixture of smoother raised areas, irregular valleys, and deeper recessed sections. From the side and top views, the pronounced lateral edges become especially visible, extending outward from the body and giving each walnut a strong horizontal structure.
Both pieces are closely coordinated in overall dimensions, body volume, ridge position, shell tone, and stance, making this a balanced pair for handling or display.
This is a one-of-one listing. The pair shown in the photographs is the pair you will receive.

The Story of the Form
Toad Head walnuts are recognized for their broad proportions, compact stance, and substantial body structure.
This pair expresses those traits particularly clearly. Rather than growing tall and narrow, each walnut spreads outward to approximately 41.0mm across the body while remaining 36.0mm through the opposing dimension, producing a dense, broad-bodied silhouette.
A strong lateral ridge visually divides the shell into upper and lower sections when viewed from certain angles. Combined with the rounded shoulders and textured central body, this creates a form that feels compact but structurally substantial.
The two walnuts also show good natural coordination. Their proportions, ridge flow, body fullness, and warm shell coloration are closely related without appearing artificially identical.
Product Characteristics
- Broad-bodied Toad Head profile: Compact height combined with generous width creates a grounded silhouette.
- Pronounced lateral structure: Strong edges extend outward and clearly define the body.
- Deep natural texture: Recessed valleys and irregular raised sections add three-dimensional detail.
- Compact hand size: The 36.0mm x 41.0mm proportions offer a substantial feel without requiring an oversized grip.
- Balanced matching: Both walnuts show closely coordinated dimensions, body volume, ridge placement, and shell tone.
- Natural form: The shell structure remains naturally developed without artificial reshaping.
Care
These walnuts have already been pre-cleaned and base-brushed. During the first month, store them in a sealed bag when they are not being handled, allowing them to acclimatize gradually to your environment.
Handle them with clean, dry, bare hands and brush the grooves gently with a clean, dry walnut brush. Pay particular attention to the recessed areas beneath the lateral ridges and around the deeper texture, where dust can naturally collect.
Keep them away from water, oil, direct heat, and prolonged sunlight.

I am very happy with all my purchases and the attention given to each one. This is an outstanding company
Incredible service, I ordered a pair that sadly could not be shipped on account of a website error. Normally that would be a red flag; in this case however, an agent reached out to me immediately, allowed me to pick out an even higher quality pair and included some very thoughtful gifts. I’m extremely satisfied with my purchase and what started out as a mistake will have me returning here first whenever I want to expand my collection.
Class acts!
I ordered my Wenwans about 13 days ago. After contacting this company about a shipping issue they were able to solve it immediately as well as to rush the order. Literally just got mine today and they are absolutely gorgeous and very large! My Pair# is DGM-901. These are my very first high grades ones. Bought some crappy amazon ones for like 6 bucks to practice. I cannot wait to start my journey with these. I highly recommend this company for their outstanding customer service and quality control!
Thank you!
This company is Stellar. I’ve enjoyed the products I’ve Boughten for myself and gifts Ives given.
Love that you have miniature walnuts for those of us who have small hands.
These guys a great. Walnuts are high quality, and what you see is what you get, no random pairs that you may not like.
I've got 5 pairs off of them so far, and none have any flaws: no yellowing, pin holes, worm marks or cracks.
I'm not an expert, but I can't detect any dyes or processing on the nuts I have received.
They get back to you quickly if you have questions or issues.
Shipping is a couple weeks to canada since its off shore orgin. No big deal.
I do wish they would post the weights of the pairs as well in the listings, but this is minor.
I consider Zenwalnut to be the best north american walnut vendor hands down.
The box it came with is great and well made. The walnuts are out of this world. I don’t know how you find a three ridge mutation (Spartan motif) with such a good pairing. Even the basins complement each other, one elavated and the other depressed so they fit together. I highly recommend this seller if you want a reliable place where you can find rare, high quality walnuts. What you see in the pictures and videos is what you get. These are my second pair from zenwalnuts and I love both of them, thank you
The first pair I bought was a pair of minis, Packaging was amazing! Display case, and brushes were all under $100. I've been using them for just over a week. Excellent quality, I have dropped them once on accident of course over concrete while outside on the patio. I was quite concerned, I gave them a look over and no cracks, chips, or scratches were found. I am now looking into higher valued pairs. I will be buying other pairs for birthday gifts and collections. I posted them on FB and will continue to keep updates of the transformation every so often.
