All aboard for a pop of colour

The latest addition to the Izzy and Jean Co. range comes to us from Tasmania. I've been to Tasmania a couple of times, and always felt that the place and the people reminded me of New Zealand. Perhaps we both tend to be thought of as the 'poor cousin' to Australia, which spurs us on to do interesting and unique things to, dare I say, prove ourselves.
...Which brings me to Joe. Joe is a very talented guy who makes these superb oak serving boards from his workshop, Treehorn Design, in Tasmania. After travelling the world doing various odd jobs, he returned to his home in Tasmania to start a business designing beautiful objects from only reclaimed, recycled or sustainably grown timber. The environment is key to his philosophy, and he even runs recycling workshops and donates to the Wilderness Society and the Australian Conservation Foundation. His goal is to make things that 'people will enjoy, wear, talk about and misunderstand'. Sounds quirky, and I like it.
I hope you like these serving boards as much as I do.
