Blue Balancing Dragonfly
Be amazed by our gravity defying balancing dragonflies, a favourite here at Timber-Treasures. Made entirely from bamboo and hand painted in various vibrant colours each dragonfly is counterbalanced to balance on your finger and give the illusion of the dragonfly hovering to land.
Made for over 4000 years in China and south east Asia, where a dragonfly landing on a child's finger is accepted as a sign of great good luck for the whole family, each dragonfly is a beautiful gift with the power to delight both the receiver and the giver.

Timber Treasures

Started in 1980 by current owner David Gladden, Timber-Treasures has been manufacturing and selling quality handmade products for over 30 years, specialising in wood carving and production. Timber-Treasures has grown from its origins as a single person company with David operating out of his workshop in Bristol, Southwest England to a company that currently sources and stocks handmade products from around the world, including Bali, India, Vietnam and China.

Still operating out of Bristol we also have our own shops located in Bath, Salisbury and Oxford. We stock a huge variety of wooden items as well as a few other handmade products. We have a wide range of carved animals, clocks and barometers, as well as our unique puzzle boxes in multiple designs. Some of these items are still produced from locally sourced timbers and David still has a hand in both the designing and the making of Timber-Treasures wide range of products.
