      DESCRIPTION

      Add vibrant colour and unmistakable presence to your next project with Padauk.
      Famous for its brilliant orange red hue, Padauk is an exotic hardwood that makes a statement the moment it is machined. Freshly cut surfaces glow with intensity, while exposure over time deepens the colour into rich reds and warm browns. Its straight grain and solid feel make it both visually striking and satisfying to work with.

      Ideal for accent pieces, furniture, cutting boards, musical instruments, and statement details, Padauk brings energy and contrast that few woods can match.

      Visual and Workable Appeal

      ✅ Colour and Grain
      Bright orange to red heartwood with straight to slightly interlocked grain and subtle texture

      ✅ Workability
      Machines cleanly, glues well, and holds crisp edges with sharp tooling

      ✅ Design Impact
      Perfect for bold accents, contrasting laminations, and modern designs that demand attention


      Special Considerations

      🔧 Colour Change Over Time
      Padauk darkens with light exposure, transitioning from vivid orange to deeper red brown tones

      🌲 Exotic and Durable
      Naturally resistant to decay and insects, making it suitable for interior and select exterior applications

      📚 Material Insight
      Padauk has long been used in fine furniture, carvings, and musical instruments thanks to its stability and striking colour
