The BEST Souvenirs in Backmede NSW

Cafe and Take Away Food.

Welcome to Australian Woodwork, a small, family-run business that specialises in the retail of fine woodwork, made by Australia's leading artisans and designers/makers utilising sustainable, Australian native timbers. Australia has some of the best timbers in the world, well known for their beauty and durability, encompassing a variety of colours, grain and hardness that make them suitable for many purposes - from railway tracks and bridges through to fine furniture and homewares. We have a broad range of products, from turned wooden bowls, chopping boards and salt & pepper mills to jewellery boxes and chess sets; from hand-carved birds to writing pens and rocking horses, all made using traditional techniques but with modern technology. Good contemporary design is of the utmost importance in our choice of products, ensuring their durability and longevity, guaranteeing they will be cherished and kept - the antiques of the future. We make every effort to ensure that the timber used in our products is sourced from sustainable forestry practices. This means that where a tree is removed it is replaced by another which may be planted or naturally grown. Australia has one of the best forest management systems in the world with a great deal of collected data that allows the level of harvest to match the annual level of growth. Of course, sustainability is not just about the number of trees but also about ensuring there is no damage to biodiversity or other species, plants and animals. The craftsmen we work with are all on board regarding sustainability as their livelihoods depend on there being timber available into the future – also they are by and large admirers of the natural world and want to see it looked after. We guarantee 100% that ALL our products are made in Australia from Australian timbers and we are very proud of our certification by the AUSTRALIAN MADE CAMPAIGN.
