Description of the Walnut Woven Mat:
NOTE: Please refer to the Additional Information tab for the full specification.
Walnut is the color of comfort. Not as light as a beach shack and not as dark as a nightclub, this warm mid-brown sits right in the middle, the tone of a well-loved leather chair or a walnut writing desk. Our walnut woven mat turns a flat plaster ceiling into a surface with depth and rhythm, so a guest room feels finished, crafted and quietly upscale.
Many “walnut” bamboo mats are natural bamboo stained brown. The stain sits on the surface, wears unevenly and leaves the cane open to mildew, splitting and insects. ONETHATCH walnut bamboo matting is hand-woven from HDPE synthetic wicker, an outdoor-grade plastic that resists rot, with UV stabilizers developed with BASF’s light-stabilizer engineers. It passed 5,000 hours of ASTM G155 accelerated weathering (Micom Laboratories, Canada) with no significant color change. Because every sheet is woven by hand, size and shade vary slightly, which keeps a large ceiling looking natural rather than printed.
To install, glue the mat to plywood, then fix the board to the wall or ceiling. Use staples, not nails. Walnut is made to order for your project, indoors or in covered outdoor areas such as verandas and terraces under a roof.

Walnut bamboo mat for hotel rooms, restaurants and residences
Walnut is the designer’s safe pair of hands. It warms a cool white room without darkening it, and it sits happily beside timber, rattan, stone and brass. Where it shines:
- Hotel rooms and suites: a brown bamboo ceiling mat above the bed, framed by timber trim, gives a resort room its sense of place without overwhelming it.
- Restaurants and cafés: a walnut woven mat ceiling softens the look of a busy dining room and makes candlelight and pendant lamps feel warmer.
- Corridors and lift lobbies: long runs of woven texture lead guests from reception to their rooms; rolls of 1220 mm × 50 m keep joints to a minimum.
- Residences and villas: feature walls, headboards and built-in wardrobe doors in walnut tie together wood furniture and natural fabrics.
Our woven matting is already at work alongside PALM (NIPA) thatch at Kuda Rah Resort in the Maldives, and every color, Walnut included, is woven to the same standard.

Walnut Woven Mat FAQ
