Alkanna and Curcuma RootAlkanna - Curcuma![]() Description:These crushed oriental tree roots with very rich red (alkanna) and yellow (curcuma) colour pigments are mixed with acid-free oil, e.g. vegetable oil, and the colour pigments bond with the oil. The strong capillary action of the oil causes the colour pigments to penetrate deep into the pores of the wood, intensifying and colouring the grain pattern of the wood without changing the natural character of the wood.
