Purpleheart

Striking, dense, and naturally vibrant, Purpleheart is an exotic hardwood renowned for its bold colour and exceptional durability. We offer high-quality Purpleheart lumber and turning blanks ideal for fine furniture, inlays, flooring, cutting boards, and woodturning projects that demand a unique and luxurious touch. Native to Central and South America, Purpleheart showcases a deep purple hue that can darken to a rich violet or brownish tone over time, especially with exposure to UV light. Its fine, straight grain and impressive strength make it a favourite among woodworkers for both its visual impact and performance. Though dense and somewhat challenging to machine, it finishes beautifully and holds detail well. As a proudly Canadian company, Windsor Plywood is your go-to source for exotic and hard-to-find wood species. Whether you're crafting a bold statement piece or adding vibrant contrast to a design, Purpleheart delivers lasting beauty, strength, and sophistication.
