Bois de Campêche, morceaux coupés

Native to the Yucatán Peninsula and originating in the southern Mexican state of Campeche, Haematoxylum campechianum—traditionally known as the Campeche tree, bluewood, or bloodwood—is arguably the most historically and economically significant of all the natural dyewoods. Prized for centuries, the rich heartwood of this tree yields profoundly deep, permanent blues, purples, and blacks, making it an essential material for textile dyers and pigment makers alike.
