Purpleheart - (Peltogyne) - also known as amaranth, violetwood, tananeo and sak, has a creamy white/gray sapwood but like its name suggests, the heartwood is a bright, striking purple when freshly cut, darkening into a deeper purple with age. It has a medium to fine texture with a luster that ranges from medium to high; its grain is usually straight but can be wavy or irregular.
Found in Central and South America, this exotic wood is a worldwide favorite. Tall and large trees grow abundantly, sometimes reaching a diameter of five feet with clear knot free log lengths typical.
Yellowheart - (Euxylophora paraensis) is also known as Pau Amarello, Limao rana, Pau Setim, and Pequiea Setim.

This beautiful hardwood has been used for everything from hat racks to flooring, drawer slides to fine furniture. The yellow stays yellow and does not fade. Gluing properties are excellent, it finishes to a beautiful sheen, and the finished product promises to become heirloom quality.
Redheart - (Sickingia salvadorensis) - other name are Chakte Kok, Cuban mahogany, Aguano, Cobano to name a few.
Redheart displays marvelous grain patterns, with wavy lines of dark brown and bright pink-red. The swirling end-grain indicates interlocking grain that needs sharp tools to work. The sapwood is a contrasting color and ages to a pale yellow. Redheart is from Mexico and Central America. Can be a medium to heavy wood.

Absolutely gorgeous hooks. Love the long neck and hook shape, mine are wood tips. The diameter of the handle fits my hand beautifully.

I can't believe they are really mine! Such great stitches,including stitches I'm not crazy for. They fit my left hand (south paw)wonderfully. And I forget to take my breaks. Will save my $ for a fancy hook. I need some salve or something to moisturize my woods and you suggest Bryon? Thank you-hugs Charlene VanOrsdale

This is my second purchase from Nelsonwood and won't be my last. The hooks are beautifully made and the ergonomic design really helps reduce stiffness in my hands.
