{"product_id":"bedrock-wenwan-walnut-35mm-natural-premium-ritual","title":"Bedrock Wenwan Walnut · 35mm · Natural · Premium Ritual","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bedrock Wenwan Walnut, traditionally known by the nickname Youping, is a niche variety primarily cultivated in Laishui, Hebei. It is especially valued for its exceptionally dense shell structure, rich natural oils, and substantial feel in hand. When gently tapped together, high-quality specimens produce a crisp, stone-like sound that reflects the dense character behind the name Bedrock.\u003cbr\u003eIt typically develops a medium-high profile with a compact, solid body and a small sesame-shaped navel. Across the shell, flowing auspicious cloud-like grain creates a distinctive layered texture inspired by the traditional Chinese xiangyun motif. Its naturally wax-rich shell and excellent bone density give the walnut a firm, substantial feel despite the variety's generally compact dimensions.\u003cbr\u003eMost Bedrock Wenwan Walnuts fall within the 35–38 mm range, making larger, well-proportioned specimens relatively uncommon. The variety is now predominantly found as grafted stock, while balanced pairs with closely matched shape, grain, and proportions require careful selection.\u003cbr\u003eWith regular brushing and handling, its naturally oil-rich shell develops color steadily, gradually maturing into a rich reddish patina with increasing translucency and a smooth, jade-like gloss. Combining high density, abundant natural oils, distinctive cloud-like grain, and compact proportions, the Bedrock Wenwan Walnut is an excellent choice for collectors who appreciate smaller matched pairs with a particularly solid hand feel and strong long-term patina potential.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WalnutRitual","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67696332701732,"sku":"P-PS-001","price":108.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0778\/5427\/7668\/files\/IMG_1489_cb6551b2-a7c0-4779-ba66-03d46c15235e.heic?v=1792175437","url":"https:\/\/walnutritual.com\/products\/bedrock-wenwan-walnut-35mm-natural-premium-ritual","provider":"WalnutRitual","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
