Black Heart Sassafras Timber 

The bark of the blackheart sassafras tree is aromatic and has been used for brewing sassafras beer.  The 1889 book The Useful Native Plants of Australia records “The fragrant bark of this tree has been used as tea in Tasmania.” Blackheart sassafras is native to Australia, with wood that is grey to golden brown with a very fine grain. Some blackheart sassafras trees are infected with a fungus which causes very attractive smokey grey streaks within the timber.

Personalised pens make great gifts: While the dark timber in this pen makes personalising this timber pen difficult, we can personalise a wooden pen box via laser engraving. In the text box provided:

• Timber box engraving: Approx. 50 letters and spaces (logo, symbols or line drawings are OK).
• We will contact you to confirm your personalisation prior to it being complete.

Gift wrapping available.  Add the name, address of the receiver in the text box, along with your personal message. We will gift wrap and post on your behalf. The package will include your name and a message but will not include an invoice.

As this pen is available in brass fittings, it makes a great 21^st wedding anniversary.
