COMPANY INFO

Please note that most of our timbers are cut to order. If you’d like to purchase in-store, we recommend placing an online order for pickup or calling ahead. This will help minimise any wait times. Tasmanian Blackwood (Acacia melanoxylon) A world-class decorative timber, Tasmanian Blackwood is celebrated for its remarkable depth of colour and mesmerising chatoyance. The heartwood presents a rich palette ranging from a medium golden-brown to a deep reddish-brown, often dramatically embellished with dark chocolate or even black growth rings. Its true beauty is revealed in its lustrous, wavy grain, which can produce a stunning three-dimensional fiddleback or quilted figure. It has a subtle, pleasant scent when worked, making it a favourite in any workshop. Its combination of visual elegance and reliable workability makes it a first-class choice for premium projects. Perfect for Box Making: Tasmanian Blackwood is an exceptional timber for creating boxes of distinction and value. Its medium density and fine texture make it a pleasure to work, while its rich, shimmering grain ensures a breathtaking result. The 10mm thickness is ideal for crafting: High-end jewellery and keepsake boxes Watch cases and instrument boxes Decorative inlay and feature panels Elegant corporate gifts The wood’s superb finishing qualities mean it polishes to a deep, silky lustre that accentuates its natural figuring, turning every box into a unique masterpiece. It offers a sophisticated visual impact on its own or creates a stunning, classic contrast when paired with lighter timbers like Huon Pine or celery top pine. Working Properties: Workability: This timber is highly rewarding to work with. It machines cleanly, turns beautifully on a lathe, and holds fine details and sharp edges exceptionally well, making it perfect for precise joinery. Finishing: Accepts finishes flawlessly. An oil or lacquer finish will enhance the wood’s natural chatoyance, making the grain appear to move and shimmer under light. Gluing: Glues very well, allowing for strong, reliable joints that will last a lifetime. Bending: It is one of the best Australian timbers for steam bending, offering fantastic creative potential for curved designs. Hardness: Offers excellent hardness and durability for wear resistance, yet it is not so hard that it causes undue tool wear. Specifications: Common Names: Tasmanian Blackwood, Australian Blackwood, Black Wattle Botanical Name: Acacia melanoxylon Origin: Southeastern Australia, particularly abundant in the forests of Tasmania. Appearance: Colour varies from golden-brown to reddish-brown, often with dark streaks. The grain is typically straight or wavy, frequently producing a highly sought-after fiddleback or quilted figure. We have more New Guinea Rosewood sizes available here.
