A brilliantly colored hardwood from South America, Purpleheart is very popular for its deep purple color. Ideal for inlay, marquetry, and other fine articles. Occasionally the trees produce either fiddleback or a ropey mottled curl from interlocked grain. The color is a pale brown when freshly cut, darkening to deep violet purple with UV exposure in a few days. The wood has coarse open grain and is dense and durable, so much that it can be used for wharf pilings and truck floors. Assorted figured  and  violet colored Purpleheart boards  that are kiln dried and surfaced on two sides. Side billet is quartersawn with nice fiddleback!  The back is matching color with straight grain.

BOTH BOARDS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS PRICE.
