Australian Banksia Pod Gift Box
Australian Banksia Pod Gift Box
Our beautiful Banksia Pod Diffusers have been hand crafted from the large seed pod that grows on the native Western Australian Banksia Tree, the Banksia grandis.
The Banksia grandis seed pod is particularly porous. It soaks up any essential oil then slowly releases the aroma through the seed holes of the pod. Being a natural product, each pod features its own individual texture and striking beauty.
This beautifully packaged gift box includes:
+ Banksia Pod Diffuser
+ Banksia Coaster
+ 12ml ‘May I Be Clean & Fresh’ Essential Oil Blend
+ Instructions
The Banksia pod measures approximately 7cm in circumference.
A Natural Diffuser
This natural diffuser is the perfect solution for areas of your home that don’t have any power points such as wardrobes and toilets. They are also an attractive feature for diffusing essential oils on your bedside table or study area.
Each Banksia Pod features an outside surface of rough edges, red velvety fur and holes where the seeds once were. These qualities are a completely natural part of the seed pod which makes them individual and beautifully unique. You will never find two the same.
Our pods are hand made in Queensland by our supply partner Banksia Gifts - an Australian owned and operated business.
Banksia Pod Diffuser Instructions
Your Banksia Pod Diffuser is pre-tested for leaks, and it is made of a natural porous material to allow the oil to be released/diffused slowly. To avoid any oil stains or damage on your furniture, such as wood or painted surfaces, we recommend you sit your pod on top of a small plate or tile to protect the surface.
+ Remove the cork from the pod
+ Choose your favourite essential oils, such as our May I Be Clean & Fresh blend and drop about 15-20 drops into the pod
+ Then place the cork back into the pod
The aroma will last for about 2 weeks. For longer lasting results simply add a few extra drops of your favourite essential oil weekly as the oil builds up and soaks into the naturally porous material.
Keep in mind that the pod cannot be easily cleaned or flushed out, so choose to fill your Banksia Pod Diffuser with essential oils that compliment each other.
Responsibility & Sustainability
The collection of the Banskia Grandis seed pod is highly regulated by the Department of Parks and Wildlife Western Australia to ensure that the landscape is undisturbed and that the Banksia trees continue to thrive in the Australian bush.
The seed pods collected have expelled their seeds and have completed the lifecycle of the plant. They are carefully handpicked to ensure no damage is done to the tree itself or the Australian bushland. The collectors go into the bush on foot, careful not to disturb any surrounding plants or wildlife and no heavy machinery is used during this process.
A royalty is paid to the Western Australian Forestry per seed pod, which goes to aid in forest management and conservation. The pickers are designated certain areas to collect the pods, and these are constantly changing to ensure no one area is ever depleted. Only 10% of the Banksia Seed Pods can be collected in any one area at a time. We pledge to always support the harvesters in their endeavours to regenerate the Australian bushland.
