Indigenous art in Victoria uses unique symbolism, which is featured on our homewares. We only use high quality and native timbers to produce our range.
Why Wood Is Important
Acacia is durable, sustainable and scratch resistant - making it a great choice for a chopping board. It has a beautiful finish and grain pattern which makes it attractive as well as practical.
Camphor Laurel is a rich honey-coloured wood that can have a distinctive scent. Whilst it’s an introduced species, its oil has been used for medicinal purposes and is said to be antibacterial.
