This wood is extremely colourful with a large range of colour from reds to violet-browns. The sap wood is a distinctive yellow colour and unlike most sapwoods, it can be found in streaks through the heartwood, not just on the outside of the tree.
Be prepared for a bit of a challenge. There are many knots found in aromatic cedar which can be a challenge. The wood also has a high silica content that will wreak havoc on your edge tools. It glues and finishes well though it is typically left unfinished.
Unfinished Aromatic Cedar is great for closets, chest and box lining because it keeps the bugs away. It is also quite rot resistant making it perfect for fence posts or outdoor furniture or projects.
Great for crafts, scroll saw work, intarsia, chip carving, laser engraving, and much more!

Aromatic Cedar - a.k.a Aromatic AF
Not only purple, beautiful and unique. But the specific gravity is everything you’d want from this species of wood. Fibrosis. Lightweight. Easy to work with and did I mention “that smell” - “ohhhh that smell” - “dank in the best way” Instagram treasure_chest @thccustom
Great selection
Good dimensions, great color and figure, will be ordering again!
