“I love making keepsakes for your keepsakes!"
Mark FRITH— Arbour Designs, Newcastle NSW
It all starts with the timber...
Timber is such a beautiful medium to work with - but obtaining beautiful timbers is not a particularly easy task. I have been fortunate to have located some great suppliers from all over Australia, as well as a wonderful collection of veneers from a number of overseas locations.
I have also been in the right place at the right time to secure some stunning pieces! This has allowed me to explore unusual and interesting timber combinations when designing my boxes.
Every box is unique. Secure your special piece today.
