Some things are worth waiting for.
We're thrilled to announce the arrival of something truly special at RT Studios — the Rare Timbers Collection, launching with one of Australia's most captivating native species: Tasmanian Blackheart Sassafras.
Found deep in the cool, temperate rainforests of Tasmania, Blackheart Sassafras is as rare as it is beautiful. The timber gets its name from the striking dark figuring — caused by a natural fungal process — that runs through its pale, creamy grain. No two pieces are alike, and no other timber quite compares.
Why Tasmanian Blackheart Sassafras?
Tasmanian Blackheart Sassafras is not a timber you simply order — it finds you. When a small quantity of this remarkable species became available to us, we knew we couldn't let it pass. The contrast between its pale grain and dark figuring, the depth, the way it catches the light — it was impossible to ignore. We made the most of every piece, and the result is a collection that exists only because the timing was right.

The Rare Timbers Collection is available now in three designs, with only a limited number of pieces ready to ship. Whether you're looking for a statement piece for your home or a gift that will be treasured for generations, this is a collection worth exploring.
