Sting with bling. This loop cane will provide a hefty impact, but not quite as stingy as a single cane, as the loop takes some of the spring out of the cane. The purpleheart handle has a gloss polyurethane varnish finish, as does the shaft. The handle holes and dots on the top of the handle are aluminium.

Purpleheart is a naturally purple timber found in Central and South America. The name purpleheart is used to refer to all 23 different species in the peltogyne genus which produce the unmistakable beauty of purple timber. This is quite a light coloured piece of purpleheart and could almost be described as pinkish.
