Silver coloured metal, this is how we describe these as 16 years in retail and several years in internet retail means if we left the “coloured” part of the description out someone from trading standards will be ringing the bell.

Beach Driftwood Pieces - DG7813

Beach driftwood pieces for all kinds of work and these come in nice chunks - the smaller being about 3 inches and thicker and the longer pieces measuring in at around 6 inches but they're thinner. A great assortment of beach driftwood pieces for all kinds of uses and nicely dried so quite light - ten pieces will weigh just over 100 grammes. We'll take requests for certain sizes of beach drfitwood pieces but we'll usually selll a cross section and good varied assortment. Craft makers tend to like the smaller pieces as out on the Dorset coast it's easier to come across larger driftwood. I have a story about once taking my kayak over to Brownsea Island and finding all manner of beautiful driftwood so I filled the hull and paddled the mile or so back to Poole Quay but didn't quite get through the shipping lane upright - much easier just adding driftwood to your cart!

Decorative Mopani Wood

One kilo mopani pieces are about 30 cms long

Real mopani (or mopane) driftwood originates from the northern parts of Southern Africa and is found nowhere else in the world. It is one of Africa's heaviest timbers and is sometimes even used for building houses, but here in the UK the wood is increasingly being used for interior and exterior decorative reasons as drfitwood decor.

Over the last year we have had more and more enquiries from interior designers and even other retailers to buy mopani wood for display and "stand alone" decor. Mopani wood is a completely natural product and no two pieces are the same. They do of course vary in size and a smaller piece measuring several inches is likely to weigh around a kilo. Large pieces, of decorative mopane wood like the images shown are likely to weigh six or seven kilos and can be up to 20 to 24 inches in height and 18 inches in diameter.

For larger orders our prices will be below wholesale and the most competitive in the UK. Contact us with your requirements.

We hand pick the very best from large stock quantities but if there are particularly shapes you think you require please add a note in the shopping cart check out. The outdoor images are of a perfect piece which can be used as a feature in any room of the home and which jewellers and other corporate buyers have been buying for display purposes.

Please enter the weight you require below but bear in mind the smallest pieces will weigh about a kilo and be several inches long.

Oh and by the way... the nautical connection is tropical fish, because they absolutely love this stuff in their fish tanks (without the jewellery or Rolex watches though). Mopani wood is often used in aquariums because it doesn't decompose as quickly as other woods. Mopani wood for aquariums direct from Dorset Gifts!

If you have any questions about sizes or quantity (we have these large and small) please give Jamie a call on 07711 247762.

We sell some interesting nautical door stop products on our site and this is one of the best. Our nautical knot door stop!

This information could be useful to you one day, but these of course are the other type of knots and we'd say are essential nautical decor for any sea themed home. They weigh over a kilo apiece so are an object perhaps not to consider if your wife/husband throws things at you, but on a serious note look classy and fitting in any beachy home - most poular destinations are bathrooms and living rooms! Attractive maritime rope effect on this nautical rope doorstop which would be good in a nautical item display.

Sailaway Nautical Bunting - DG6515

It took me half my life to work out what bunting actually was.
