Freshly cut or worked, it reveals a vivid, almost unreal violet-purple colour that is entirely natural and needs no staining or treatment. Dense, exceptionally hard and very strong, it is a timber that performs as impressively as it looks, with excellent resistance to wear and a natural durability that makes it ideal for handled items that will see regular use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOver time, Purpleheart’s colour deepens and shifts toward a rich, dark reddish-brown with purple undertones — a natural process that can be slowed by applying a UV-resistant finish. Either way, a Purpleheart crook handle is a conversation piece that will never go unnoticed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecies:\u003c\/strong\u003e Purpleheart (\u003cem\u003ePeltogyne spp.\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 150 × 150 × 30mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKiln dried hardwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSawn timber — supplied as sawn, ready for shaping and finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid timber blank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for carving, shaping and sanding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for walking stick and cane making\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWalking stick handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrook walking sticks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShepherd’s crooks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHiking staffs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWood carving projects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStatement handmade gifts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a crook handle that is genuinely unlike anything else, Purpleheart is the choice — extraordinary colour, exceptional hardness, and a story that every maker and recipient will want to tell.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Timber is a natural product and may contain variations in colour and grain.
