Sometimes called amaranth, this colorful Latin American hardwood is tremendously popular for pen, blanks, furniture and other designs that call for a unique splash of color. In addition to its coloration, purpleheart has excellent strength and weathering properties, and can be used in applications where strength or durability is important—a wood with both form and function!
Purpleheart Pen Blanks
Purpleheart, also known as amaranth, is a highly sought-after hardwood in pen blanks and wood working due to its unique and vibrant nature. When freshly cut, the heartwood of purpleheart may appear dull grayish/purplish brown. However, within just a few days of exposure, it transforms into a deeper eggplant purple, making it an incredibly eye-catching material.
Not only that, but purpleheart is also known for its remarkable strength and durability, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications. Over time and exposure to UV light, the wood darkens into a brownish-purple shade, but to slow down this color shift, a UV inhibiting finish can be applied. All in all, purpleheart is a functional and beautiful choice for anyone looking for an impressive and long-lasting material.
The pen blanks measure 3/4" x 5".
