Kent Wooden Letter Opener With Gold Fittings - Rain Tree Timber

 This stylish gold letter opener is a handy addition to any household or office. This letter opener will effortlessly slice open all your envelopes with ease, leaving lovely smooth paper edges.

This letter opener is made from rain tree timber. Rain trees are massive umbrella-shaped trees that grow to 60 m tall with a crown up to 80 m wide. It is particularly valued for its timber, and for shading crops but also supplies medicine for stomach ache, sore throats and skin conditions. Rain tree pods are edible, containing a brownish, sticky, liquorice-like, sweet-flavoured pulp. A lemon-like fruit drink can also be made from the pulp. The popular, heavily striated rain tree timber is straw to smokey coloured and commonly found growing in tropical north Queensland, though it is not an Australian native. A truly stunning timber. Each rain tree timber letter opener is handcrafted by an artisan who hand turns each one on a lathe in North Brisbane.

For all our timber letter openers we use a meticulous 13 step sanding and polishing process and with 10 coats of CA we highlight the simple, innate beauty of the timber. The natural uniqueness in the woodgrain and timber colour variations, means that each one we create is one of a kind. The dagger style Kent letter opener features quality gold fittings and comes standard in a protective sleeve. You can add a quality black gift box below.
