[The Story: A Natural Deviation] While 99% of walnuts grow with two ridges, nature occasionally surprises us with a variant that has three.

  • The "Mercedes" Shape: From the top view, the three ridges meet in the center to form a distinct "Y" shape, reminiscent of the Mercedes-Benz star.
  • True Form (Zheng Ben): This pair is a "Zheng Ben" specimen, meaning the three ridges are naturally formed and evenly distributed, rather than being artificially modified.

[Why this pair (#SL-30) is Special?]

  • Hard to Match: Finding a single 3-ridge walnut is uncommon; finding two that match in size and shape to form a pair is significantly harder. This pair has been carefully selected from thousands of walnuts.
  • Unique Hand Feel: Because of the triangular structure, these walnuts roll differently in the hand compared to standard ones. The extra ridge provides a new contact point for tactile stimulation.
  • Cultural Meaning: In traditional culture, the number three often symbolizes stability and harmony ("San Yang Kai Tai").

❌ DON'T:

  • NO Temperature Shock: Avoid placing them near heaters or A/C vents to prevent cracking.
