[The Story: "Si Zuo Lou" ] Among all Lion Head varieties, the "Four Towers" (Si Zuo Lou) is widely considered the "King."

  • The Legend: Named after the ancient "Four Towers" near the location of the original mother tree, this variety is the gold standard for collectors.
  • The Signature Base: Unlike other walnuts that have a messy bottom, the Si Zuo Lou features a magnificent "Chrysanthemum Base" (Ju Hua Di). The ridges on the bottom radiate outward from the center like the petals of a blooming flower.

[Why this pair (#SZL-10) is a Collector's Choice?]

  • The Perfect Bottom: As seen in the base photos, the "Chrysanthemum" pattern on this pair is tight, deep, and beautifully formed. This is the most critical feature collectors look for.
  • Classic 39mm Comfort: With dimensions of 3.9cm x 3.9cm, this pair is the definition of "Refined." It fits perfectly in the hand for agile rotation without feeling clumsy.
  • Broad Shoulders: It features the classic broad, flat shoulders and thick edges that give Si Zuo Lou its dignified, powerful appearance.

[Specifications]

  • Variety: Four Towers Lion Head (Si Zuo Lou)
  • ID: #SZL-10
  • Size: Approx. 39mm x 39mm (The Golden Standard)
  • Condition: Deep cleaned, Raw shell.
  • Highlight: Distinctive "Chrysanthemum" bottom texture.

🛡️ Care Guide: How to protect your walnuts Walnuts are organic wood gems. They are alive and reacting to the environment.

✅ DO:

  • Brush the Base: The deep "Chrysanthemum" pattern at the bottom loves to trap dust. Give the bottom extra attention with your brush to keep the "petals" clear.
  • Clean Hands: Your natural oils will turn this pair into a stunning agate red.
  • Rest Them: Let them adjust to your room temperature for 12 hours before playing.

❌ DON'T:

  • NO A/C or Heaters: Never leave them directly under an air conditioner or next to a heater. Sudden temperature shock causes cracks.
  • NO Water: Do not wash them with water. If they get wet, dry immediately.
  • NO Drops: They are dense but can chip if dropped on hard tiles.

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!

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.
