Uniqueness of wood:
Amaranth wood, also known as Purple Heart, is an exotic hardwood that comes from the tropical forests of Central and South America and is prized for its exceptional purple color. After the fresh cut, the wood initially appears brownish, but after a short time it develops an intense, natural purple colour, which makes it a real eye-catcher. Due to this unique colour and the special grain, amaranth wood is ideal for exclusive furniture, jewellery and cutting boards.
In addition to its impressive appearance, amaranth wood is characterized by high strength and resistance. It is one of the hardest woods in the world, which makes it extremely durable and resistant to wear and tear. This robustness combined with the exceptional color makes it the perfect choice for projects where both durability and aesthetic preferences are required. Amaranth wood is also resistant to moisture and pests, which makes it suitable for outdoor use and for heavily used surfaces.
Amaranth wood is the ideal choice for anyone looking for a unique, durable and visually striking material. It adds an exclusive touch to any project and convinces with its combination of robustness and aesthetics. Whether for luxurious furniture, stylish floor coverings or extraordinary accessories – amaranth wood offers a unique opportunity to give rooms and designs a special, individual charisma. With its unparalleled color and high durability, it is the perfect choice for projects that need to be both durable and impressive.
Wood is a natural product and each piece is unique. Color differences and growth-related irregularities are natural properties of the material. These variations in structure and color make each piece special. Wood can vary in volume, which can lead to warping, cracking, and fit inaccuracies. These properties do not constitute a defect and do not constitute a warranty claim. Direct sunlight can change the color of the wood.
Processing instructions:
Amaranth / Purple Heart planks are difficult to work with with conventional woodworking tools. Due to their density and hardness, we always recommend using sharp and high-quality tools to achieve clean cuts and a perfect finish. Amaranth / Purple Heart planks are great for cutting boards.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
How long does delivery take?
The delivery time is usually 3-7 working days.
Are the shipping costs higher for a larger order?
No. You only pay the shipping fee once per order, even if your delivery is made in several packages due to the high weight of precious woods.
Tip: It is worthwhile to combine several woods or dimensions directly in one order.
Can I process the wood immediately?
For all woods, we specify the respective residual moisture . In most cases, you can start editing right away. However, for filigree work, such as instrument making, we recommend a short acclimatization.
Can I only buy wood with upright growth rings?
No. A shipment can include timber with both upright and horizontal growth rings. Since cutting a trunk produces significantly fewer woods with upright growth rings, their proportion is naturally lower.
Why are only certain precious woods available in the shop?
We only offer precious woods that are currently available in our shop. The reason for this is our high quality standards: not every type of wood is permanently available in consistent quality.
In order to be able to offer you a large selection of widths and dimensions , we regularly cut our precious woods and update the range accordingly.
