The Coolibah Legend:

Immortalized in Australia’s unofficial national anthem “Waltzing Matilda,” the coolibah tree grows in the harshest outback conditions along seasonal flood plains. These extreme growing conditions create the extraordinary density and strength that makes coolibah timber legendary. This burl formation represents decades of stress-induced growth creating the spectacular patterns you see.

Technical Supremacy:

• Exceptional Durability – Naturally resistant to decay, termites, and weathering

• Unique Burl Formation – Two types: resin burl and bird’s eye burl, this shows characteristics of both

• Premium Finish – Polishes to an incredible lustrous surface highlighting natural patterns

Sustainability Story:

Coolibah burls can be harvested without harming the tree, making this an environmentally responsible choice. The slow growth in harsh outback conditions means each burl represents many decades of natural formation.
