Black Walnut Tall Shot Glass
Dimensions: ~4‑5/8 inches tall × 2‑1/2 inches in diameter
Hand‑crafted from Black Walnut (Juglans nigra), this tall shot glass highlights one of North America’s most iconic hardwoods. Walnut is celebrated for its deep chocolate‑brown tones, fine grain, and natural luster, qualities that have made it a favorite for fine furniture, cabinetry, and turned objects. Its reputation as the “king” of American hardwoods comes from both its beauty and its resilience, aging gracefully while retaining its luxurious appeal.
The glass itself stands nearly five inches tall, with a substantial diameter that feels balanced in the hand. Its surface reveals flowing grain patterns and subtle variations in tone, enhanced by a smooth finish that brings warmth and elegance. Durable yet refined, it is equally suited for sipping spirits or serving as a decorative piece.
Black Walnut’s strength, dimensional stability, and natural resistance to decay ensure this vessel is built to last. Whether used for entertaining or given as a meaningful gift, it embodies the legacy of walnut craftsmanship in miniature form. Created by Gentry Crafted, it is both functional and timeless.
Finish:
Shot glasses are finished with walnut oil, carnauba wax and beeswax. The first several times a shot glass is used there will likely be walnut oil residue with the alcohol. It does not affect the taste.
