Official Hat Wenwan Walnut · 44mm · Natural · Entry Ritual

The Official Hat Wenwan Walnut is a classic variety named for its resemblance to the traditional hats worn by ancient Chinese officials. It is distinguished by its tall, upright profile, narrow tip, elongated body, and dramatically flared shoulders that create the elegant silhouette for which the variety is known. The shell is covered with clear, vertically flowing grain that enhances its refined appearance.

Its dense shell and naturally wax-rich surface provide a satisfying weight in hand while supporting steady, even patina development. With regular brushing and handling, the walnut gradually deepens into a rich crimson red, eventually developing a smooth, glass-like finish that highlights its distinctive shape and texture.

Naturally symmetrical Official Hat walnuts are uncommon, making carefully matched pairs particularly desirable among collectors. Combining elegant proportions, reliable patina development, and enduring popularity, the Official Hat Wenwan Walnut remains one of the most recognizable traditional varieties for both experienced enthusiasts and those beginning their Wenwan journey.
