Purpleheart Turning Square
We will provide you with a high quality turning blank in the dimensions of your choice. This blank has already been kiln dried and is ready to be "turned" into your next great project! We recommend using Honey Bee's Natural Wood Cream for a long lasting and food safe finish.
We can sometimes accomodate a larger blank than our standard sizes. Please email us for availability and a quote.
Dimensions may vary +/- 1/4" as we often prefer to lightly skip dress the turning blanks to reveal grain & colour. Some blanks may also come with waxed faces and ends.
Courtesy of The Wood Database:
When freshly cut the heartwood of Purpleheart is a dull grayish/purplish brown. Upon exposure the wood becomes a deeper eggplant purple. With further age and exposure to UV light, the wood becomes a dark brown with a hint of purple. This color-shift can be slowed and minimized by using a UV inhibiting finish on the wood.

Beautiful color and nice straight grain. Haven't used it yet, but it looks like it'll hold up well.
Purpleheart Turning Square
Purchased exotic woods from my Stained Glass work. I incorporate Stained Glass butterflies on various shapes of wood purchased through KJP Select Hardware. Totally please with quality and service.
A bit thinner then others and not much grain pattern. So great option for staining or painting.
Excellent blades. No tear out on the bottom when cutting plywood. They hold up very well in many different hardwoods.
this is the first time purchasing this and it is great. Works well and great color Love the folks at KJP
