Purpleheart

Purpleheart is a strong and long-lasting wood that comes from the Peltogyne genus, which includes 23 species of huge trees endemic to the borderlands between Mexico and Brazil. It's well renowned for its stunning grain pattern and one-of-a-kind hue that's hard to find in other woods. The strength, density, and durability of Purpleheart wood's timber structure are among its distinguishing traits. Purpleheart is one of the strongest and densest trees on the market, and it may easily be called one of the strongest and densest trees available. However, the toughness of the wood and the natural oils contained within its structure can harm processing equipment, dulling saw blades and clogging cutting and drilling tools with glue. Even with that inconvenience factored in, Purplewood's outstanding visual appeal and strength make it one of the most exotic trees native to Central and South America.

Purpleheart wood's internal structure is made up of greyish-purple hardwood that gradually turns violet purple and then deep purple over time. This alteration is linked to the presence of ultraviolet light, which causes the wood's top layer to change. Purpleheart wood can be treated with an anti-UV coating or sanded to reduce color change. The natural luster is high, with a straight grain that looks excellent on the surface but might present problems while cutting and drilling.
