The Allure of Purple Heart Wood and Its Use in Making Accessories

The Allure of Purple Heart Wood and Its Use in Making Accessories

Deep in the heart of Central and South American rainforests lies a hidden gem—Purple Heart wood. Artisans embrace this unique and vibrant wood species for its beauty, durability, and versatility. They have used it to create stunning wood watches, wallets, bracelets, and many other types of accessories in recent years. 

Purple heart wood, known scientifically as Peltogyne, is an exotic hardwood native to Central and South America. Its name comes from the purple hue that wood develops when exposed to air and light. With a delicate, straight grain and unique texture, it is a favorite among artisans for creating pieces that stand out.

At Treehut, we also love working with its gorgeous hues for our best-selling wooden watches and even some unique accessories. For instance, the following are some of our most loved purple heart wood watches and accessories:
