Amazing coloration on this Bloodwood
I have worked Bloodwood into many of my recent projects due to it's ability to make items "pop" with contrast. The hardwood in larger thickness' remains true to shape and has not warped or twisted as it seems to have been properly dried prior to arrival. Nice quality wood worth every penny for the impact it makes. Actually is a blood coloration and brings a beautiful red tone to your projects.
