This cremation urn is made out of Pacific Madrone with a Purpleheart cross inlay.
Purpleheart trees are prized for their beautiful heartwood which, when cut, quickly turns from a dark brown to a rich purple color. Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light darkens the wood to a brown color with a slight hue of the original purple. This effect can be minimized with a finish containing a UV inhibitor. This wood is quite dense, and if it is to be worked, then a sharp carbide blade is required to cut it. For uses of this wood it is prized for fine inlay work, woodturning, cabinetry, and furniture.
This is a Single sized urn with dimensions of 9" wide by 6" deep by 5" high.
