7 Tamar Valley Christmas Gift Ideas
Looking for a gift for someone dear who lives near Launceston or in the surrounding Tamar Valley or perhaps they're planning a trip there soon?
Here's seven Tamar Valley region Christmas gift ideas they might enjoy.
Design Tasmania Duncan Meerding Stump Light
Meerding's extraordinary indoor wooden stump light won the Darc Award For Best Floor Light of 2018. Made from salvaged logs which otherwise would have been burnt, the stump light makes use of the naturally occurring cracks, revealing warmly lit chinks of light within. What is even more remarkable is Meerding made these being legally blind with only 5% vision. Each stump light is one of a kind, custom-made from salvaged logs, and measures approximately 44cm high. Pick-up in-store in Launceston or arrange for shipping at an additional fee. $1,090.

Knitted using Australian wool and wool blends, 80% wool/20% nylon and is machine washable. She'll wish it was adult-size! $55.
