Official Hat Wenwan Walnut

Official Hat is one of the most classic and popular traditional wenwan walnut varieties, widely cherished by collectors worldwide. It gets its name from its striking resemblance to the formal hat worn by ancient Chinese officials, featuring wide, flat, and gracefully curved shoulders that stretch outward smoothly, with a tall and upright overall silhouette that looks dignified and elegant. The walnut has a plump and symmetrical body with a neat, flat base, and its surface is covered in fine, dense, and uniform grain patterns that are soft to the touch without any sharp ridges. A core advantage of this variety is its excellent density and substantial hand feel, feeling heavy and solid when held, while its rich natural oil content allows it to develop a glossy, warm patina quickly with regular handling. It is also highly durable and resistant to cracking, easy to maintain for long-term play, and its classic shape and consistent texture make it a versatile choice for both novice players and seasoned collectors, never going out of style in the wenwan circle.
