5 out of 5 starsBeautifully made box, perfect craftsmanship. Anthony was an absolute pleasure to deal with, replying to my many questions very promptly with honest and very helpful advice. I was pondering on a specific box for a while, only to see it sell before I could bring myself to commit. Luckily Anthony had another similar box available. In saying that, my only advice to potential buyers would be to decide quickly, you won’t regret it!

5 out of 5 starsThis has been a seamless and wonderful transaction. The box was dispatched quickly and was so well packaged. The box itself does not disappoint - it is an exquisite work of craftsmanship that presents better in person than any photo can show. Thank you!

5 out of 5 starsI’ve been stalking this shop for over a year, plagued by indecision as the boxes are all so stunning. I watched box after shortlisted box disappear from sale, and finally took the plunge. I picked it up from the post office today and I can’t stop admiring this box! It is even more beautiful than the photos show, with exquisite craftsmanship and beautiful timber. If you are looking for a special gift, you can’t go wrong with one of Anthony’s boxes. Don’t wait as long as I did!

5 out of 5 starsI’d been eyeing these boxes for a long time and so glad that I finally made the purchase before I missed out. I have not come across anything else that matches this iridescent beauty. Absolutely gorgeous! The quality is impeccable. Bonus - the box it shipped in is useful, too.
About AustralianFineBoxes
Handcrafting timber boxes
For most of my working life I was a boatbuilder, building mainly large offshore powerboats.
Then in 1993 the company for whom I worked ceased trading and I found myself unemployed. I started a business repairing boats on site -- not much fun lying underneath a boat and trying to repair it in the middle of a Melbourne winter.
I have always been interested in wood, it's colours and grain patterns, and during my time as a boat builder I worked with many beautiful timbers, learning the importance of different joints. During this time I built my first Jewellery Box, given to my wife as a birthday gift. A friend saw this box and commissioned me to build a similar one for him. Other people saw that box and asked me to build boxes for them. I built more boxes and did less boat repairs, and in 1994 I became a full time box maker.
I have always been fascinated by old and antique wooden boxes, with their inlays and escutcheons, so most of my boxes are modern variations of these.
Australia is well endowed with a large range of beautiful timbers, which enables me to offer my customers a variety of designs in striking grain patterns and colours.
I hope owning one of these boxes gives my customers as much pleasure as I have had creating them.
