Description
the brand story:
Buttonworks Australia is a family business owned and operated by Liz and Mike Murray, who began making wooden craft buttons in 2001. As their product range grew so did Buttonworks and 2 of Liz and Mike's daughter's, Keli and Liza, have since joined the business. Their product range developed from a love of Australian timbers, to include souvenirs, gifts, jewellery, puzzles, games, educational aids and children's products featuring natural and urban icons, native flowers, birds and animals.
With a focus on sustainability, their products are designed to be compact, lightweight and safe to send overseas. All of their design, manufacturing and assembly is done in our studio across the bay from Melbourne, on the Mornington Peninsula. Buttonwork's registration with the Australian Made Campaign allows for each of their products to carry the Australian Made logo. Buttonworks use several Australian timbers to make their products, these include Tasmanian Oak, Jarrah, Blackwood and Myrtle.
