Elegant addition to my study
Using this as a stand for my personal seal collection. The rectangular shape fits perfectly on my desk shelf. It feels very premium and looks much more expensive than it cost.

Exactly as described
The dimensions were accurate, and the wood quality is authentic. It serves as a perfect minimalist display piece that doesn't distract from the object sitting on top of it.

Sturdy and well-finished
Very happy with this purchase. The polishing is done professionally, giving it a silky touch. It provides a stable platform for my strange stone collection.

Great quality, slight scent initially
Excellent solid base. It had a strong woody smell when I first opened it, which I personally love, but it might be intense for some. It faded after a few days of airing out.

Beautiful grain pattern
I bought this to display a small jade ornament. The contrast between the green jade and the purple wood is stunning. The craftsmanship is flawless with no rough edges.

Perfect weight for my Yixing teapot
The density of this purple sandalwood base is impressive. It holds my heavy teapot securely without sliding. The color is rich and deepens slightly over time. Highly recommended for tea enthusiasts.
Q: Can this base support a heavy ceramic teapot weighing around 2 lbs?
A: Yes, absolutely. Purple sandalwood is an extremely dense hardwood. The solid square and rectangular bases are designed to comfortably support heavy items like ceramic teapots, large stones, and jade sculptures without issue.
Q: Will the purple color fade if placed in sunlight?
A: Like all natural woods, prolonged direct exposure to strong sunlight may cause gradual changes in color tone. We recommend displaying your base in indirect light to maintain its rich purple hue for years to come.
Q: Is this base treated with any chemical varnish or lacquer?
A: No, our purple sandalwood bases are finished using traditional natural wax polishing methods only. We do not use chemical varnishes or lacquers to preserve the natural scent and texture of the wood.
Q: How should I clean the base if it gets dusty?
A: Simply wipe the surface gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using water, cleaning solvents, or wet cloths, as moisture can damage the natural finish and alter the wood's color over time.
Q: Do you offer custom sizes for this purple sandalwood base?
A: Currently, we offer standard square and rectangular sizes listed in the product options. Custom sizing is not available at this time, but we frequently add new standard dimensions based on customer demand.
