Premium Wood Pen Blank: Purple Heart

Purple Heart is a deep vivid purple wood that is highly figured. It turns easily on the lathe and takes a high polish.

Minimum Size: 20mm x 20mm x 125mm

Very Important: After you have finished turning and sanding your Purple Heart pen blank, it will be a dull brownish colour. Leave it in the sun on a windowsill for 4 – 6 days, turning it every day so that the whole blank gets sun. It will turn a beautiful, deep purple colour. Now you can coat it with your desired coating. Remember, if you put a coating on the wood without putting it in the sun, it will stay a dull brown/gray colour.
