Tasmanian Sassafras is found in most areas of state, except for drier areas of the east coast. It is common on both the eastern and western mountain ranges. Of all Tasmanian timbers, sassafras has the most variable and dynamic colouring. It is normally a beautiful and pale creamy grey to white, but can be streaked with rich browns and black heart.
About the Maker: Craig, apprenticed for many years experience under his late father Bruce, demonstrates a keen eye for Tasmanian woodcraft, lovingly hand finishing each box to perfection, all from 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 are all hand finished. Craig believes gaining a quality finish is as much about feel as sight.
Craig knows his timbers and only purchases select grade material 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.
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 timber 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 timber.
We hope you will love your Tasmanian Sassafras Jewel Box as much as Bruce and Craig loved making it for you.

When looking for a special friend's 50th birthday gift, a jewellery box with the potential to compliment her newly renovated walk-in robe sounded like a plan. I found tasnique online and was so impressed with the range. Knowing that Tassie sourced timber was special and advertised as handmade also seemed the best plan. The ordering system is easy to use, they made contact with me during the process and even called me before it was shipped to ensure I was happy. I was even more impressed when what I expected to be a 40-day plus postage turnaround was bought forward a few weeks. When I opened my package I was delighted with the finished product- including that beautiful smell of Tassie sassafras timber. I would absolutely recommend tasnique for a special purchase.
