A New Chapter for Two Tasmanian Makers… 

We’re proud to share that Merritt Joinery, a local Tasmanian family-owned business, acquired fellow Tasmanian business Axiom Lighting in late 2025.

This transition comes as Axiom Lighting founder and master craftsman Ian Hewitt steps into a well-earned retirement. Ian has built a beautiful legacy of handcrafted timber veneer lighting, and we’re honoured to continue his work and vision into the future.

Both Merritt Joinery and Axiom Lighting share the same values — craftsmanship, quality, and a deep respect for locally made design — making this a perfect fit.

This is a proud moment for Tasmanian manufacturing — celebrating the past while building something new for the future.

The Merritt family wish Ian and Julia well in their retirement, and look forward to carrying on Ian’s legacy.

Introducing

The Gordon Collection

"This collection is more than lighting; it's a statement of sustainable elegance."

Ian Hewitt
Founder – Axiom Lighting

Refined Illumination

Each piece, handcrafted from premium Bird’s Eye Huon Pine veneers, exudes a warm, natural glow, transforming any room into a welcoming retreat.

These veneers were meticulously sliced from logs salvaged from Lake Gordon during the construction of the Gordon Dam in the 1970s. Bought by tender from Forestry Tasmania in the 1980s, the logs were taken to the Burnie veneer mill and expertly sliced into veneers.

Ideal for both residential and commercial spaces, these pendant lights offer a versatile solution to elevate your interior design. Embrace the charm of handcrafted illumination that seamlessly integrates with your unique style.

The Tasmanian timbers are beautiful, fittings are made with much care and great attention to detail. Service was so friendly and professional and Ian sent me home with everything I would need to have them installed right down to the correct light globes.

I still admire them every day and will be back to fit out the remaining rooms of my home.

Ian made us 3 beautiful sassafras pendants for over our dining table. Ian was great to deal with in the ordering phase, the workmanship is excellent and they arrived quickly. Thanks Ian!

All the products are about beautiful and stunning. Made with care and every piece is unique on its own. We had shipping-related issues twice, but Ian was absolutely fantastic in rectifying it. In short, high quality products and services!!!

I have two beautiful lamps from Axiom Lighting. Absolute perfection! Can not fault them. One is made from Huon Pine and smells absolutely amazing, as well as sets off a gorgeous orange glow at night. Highly recommend.
