Tasmanian Sassafras Jewel Box
This beautiful Tasmanian Sassafras Jewellery Box highlights the colours and amazing grain variation of the Tasmanian Sassafras tree. Fully lined, this jewellery box is a wonderful gift idea for a wedding, special day, birthday or simply to say "I love you".
Craig, the craftsman behind Bruce's Boxes, being apprenticed under his late father Bruce for many years, demonstrates his keen eye for Tasmanian woodcrafting. Lovingly he hand finishes each box to perfection, all in his home-based Launceston workshop.
Whilst Craig has a modern workshop with all the newer woodworking tools, at the end of the day nothing beats the finish of good old fashion 'Elbow Grease'. In other words, the timber products he makes are all hand finished. Craig firmly believes gaining a quality finish is as much about feel as sight.
Craig knows his timbers and only purchases select grade material sustainably sourced in Tasmania for his boxes. The timbers arrive seasoned and ready to be machined to dimension. Craig thicknesses each board and then invests extra time to colour match each component to provide the best combination for each box. Every piece of timber has been carefully selected to create the most beautiful design for the finished product.
Please note: This box is a natural product, meaning natural timber knots, colours & streaks will occur and vary from each box (Please view the example provided in the product photos.)
Over the years Craig has built relationships with a small number of well-respected millers and timber merchants in Tasmania and always makes sure to source his Sassafras sustainably.
Bruce's Boxes are fine solid timber products. Unlike glossy thin veneers there is no substitute for the feel, smell and look of real solid Sassafras. Full length piano hinges are used for attaching the lids to the box bodies with their own specially designed back rest which gives great stability and strength.
You will love your Tasmanian Sassafras Jewellery Box as much as Craig loved making it for you.
