Purpleheart
Purpleheart (Peltogyne spp.) is a striking exotic hardwood prized for its vivid purple color and exceptional durability. Freshly cut, the wood may appear brownish but quickly turns a deep purple when exposed to light, often darkening further over time to a rich, eggplant hue.
Purpleheart turns cleanly with sharp tools, producing crisp detail and smooth surfaces. Its dense, fine grain sands well and finishes to a high polish. When properly dried, purpleheart offers excellent stability and strength, making it suitable for both functional and decorative turning projects.
Common uses include turning blanks, bowls, spindles, pens, tool handles, furniture accents, and decorative pieces.
