(Brosimum rubescens) – Exotic Red Hardwood for Turning

Bloodwood is a striking exotic hardwood prized for its deep, natural red colour and exceptional density. Known for its rich crimson tones that deepen with age, Bloodwood is a favourite among woodturners, pen makers, and fine‑craft artisans who want a bold, luxurious finish without the need for dyes or stains.

This hardwood turns beautifully when tools are kept sharp, producing crisp details and a smooth, glass‑like finish. Its natural lustre and dramatic colour make it ideal for high‑end pens, bottle stoppers, jewellery, handles, and decorative turned pieces.
