This exquisite, hand turned ballpoint pen is truly exceptional. Made from gorgeous Blackheart Sassafrass, this Cameron Pen is just beautiful. One of our most popular designs, the Cameron Pen comes in a range of colours and features a range of pen bands, including Australiana and triple ringed. 

As each of our pens are custom made from a range of stunning timbers, each piece is genuinely one of a kind. Sassafrass grows as an understorey tree in Tasmania's wet mixed forests and rainforests but also grows in Victoria and New South Wales. Timber from the plain sassafrass logs was once used for clothes pegs because they do not contain any tannin. Today sassafrass is famous for its spectacular black-heart stain caused by naturally occuring wood fungi which produces a range of contrasting brown to black colours in the heartwood.

Black-heart sassafrass timber is used in wood turning, furniture, joinery, for veneers and in many souvenir items. Creative veneer lay-ups can produce stunning effects with even slight amounts of heart stain. Spalted sassafrass timber, fine dark lines caused by stain fungi in the log after harvesting, is also attractive and popular in craft and furniture items. Our timber is sourced sustainably from companies who rescue timber from distressed trees. The eucalyptus tree is an Australian icon. Most eucalyptus species produce figured wood, however some species regularly produce more distinct figuring. While figure in wood is desired for decorative work it has results in a down grade for structural timber and is often a problem for sawmillers. We give this beautiful timber a new lease on life and reduce timber wastage.​
