Bloodwood Pen Blanks - 10 Pack 3/4 x 6"

These pen blanks were previously called Satine, but are now more commonly known as Bloodwood. They have become very popular due to their exceptional strength and captivating color. 

Bloodwood has a vibrant and intense crimson hue that can deepen into a rich brownish red when exposed to light over time. To maintain its original shade, it's recommended to apply a thick protective finish and limit direct sunlight exposure. Additionally, the hardwood's density ensures a splendid finish and brilliant shine.

The pen blanks measure 3/4" x 5".
