Lotus Wood

Lotus wood, derived from the lotus tree, known scientifically as Nelumbo nucifera, is esteemed for its beauty and unique qualities. The wood itself is relatively rare in the crafting of products due to the sacredness of the lotus plant, particularly in Asian cultures where it is most revered. However, when used, it typically presents a fine grain with a pale to creamy color, sometimes with hints of pink or green.

The scent profile of lotus wood is quite subtle and distinctive, echoing the gentle and clean aroma of the lotus flower. It carries a lightly floral note, soft and aquatic, reminiscent of the serene environments where the lotus naturally thrives. This makes lotus wood particularly valued in aromatherapy and luxury craft applications, where its unique aromatic and aesthetic qualities can be appreciated. The calming scent is often associated with purity and spiritual awakening, mirroring the symbolic significance of the lotus flower in many cultures.
