Winged “Butterfly White Lion” Wenwan Walnut Pair — 41.0mm x 41.0mm | HDBS-C1D5E

Product Description

This one-of-one listing features the exact Butterfly White Lion (Hudie Bai Shizi) Wenwan walnut pair shown in the photographs.

Measuring 41.0mm x 41.0mm, this pair has an unusually full, almost spherical body combined with a dramatic horizontal ridge structure. Viewed from the side, the projecting waistline extends outward like a pair of butterfly wings, giving the walnuts a highly recognizable silhouette.

The form is especially interesting because the upper and lower sections remain rounded and substantial while the central ridge cuts strongly across the body. Dense, layered texture surrounds this ridge, creating considerable visual depth from multiple angles.

Rather than being defined by conventional upright proportions, this pair is collected for its unusual architecture, strong symmetry, and sculptural character.

The walnuts have been pre-cleaned and base-brushed for international shipping.

The Story of the Form

The White Lion (Bai Shizi) family is traditionally recognized for its substantial body and strong ridge structure.

The Butterfly White Lion develops that architecture in a far more unusual direction.

Its most distinctive feature is the extended horizontal ridge running across the walnut. When seen from the side, the ridge opens outward on both sides, creating a silhouette reminiscent of butterfly wings.

On this pair, the 41mm by 41mm proportions also produce a particularly full and rounded body. The result is a form that appears compact from the front but becomes dramatically sculptural when rotated.

It is a pair best appreciated from multiple angles rather than from a single conventional front view.

Product Characteristics

• Butterfly-wing profile: Pronounced lateral ridge extends outward from both sides.
• 41 x 41 proportions: Nearly equal width and height create an unusually rounded presence.
• Strong waist structure: The horizontal ridge clearly divides the upper and lower shell.
• Deep layered texture: Dense folds and cavities give the surface substantial dimensionality.
• Balanced pairing: The two walnuts share closely related proportions, ridge placement, and overall visual weight.
• Sculptural character: Particularly striking from side and three-quarter viewing angles.
• Collector-oriented form: An unusual White Lion expression for collectors interested in distinctive natural morphology.

Care

These walnuts have already been pre-cleaned and base-brushed.

During the first month, keep them in a sealed bag when not being handled so they can gradually acclimatize to your environment. Handle with clean, dry hands and brush regularly with a clean Wenwan brush.

Avoid water, oils, heaters, air-conditioning vents, prolonged direct sunlight, and sudden changes in temperature or humidity.
