walnut
Hard-shelled tree seed
A walnut is the edible nut of a tree in the genus Juglans, encased in a hard, wrinkled shell.
The wood of the walnut tree is prized for furniture and gunstocks, valued for its rich brown color and fine grain.
Walnut also describes that characteristic dark brown color: walnut stain, walnut finish.
