  • Is olive wood dishwasher safe?

    No, olive wood is not dishwasher safe. The intense heat, moisture, and detergents can damage the wood — causing it to dry out, crack, or warp.

    To keep your olive wood products in the best condition, store them in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and heat sources, which can cause the wood to dry out and crack.

Periodically apply a food-safe oil to maintain the wood’s natural luster and prevent it from drying out.

  • How durable is olive wood compared to other hardwoods?

    Olive wood is incredibly durable and often outperforms many other hardwoods like oak or maple in terms of strength and resistance to wear. Its dense nature makes it tough against scratches and damage, and it’s naturally resistant to moisture and odors. Unlike some woods that can dent or show wear easily, olive wood keeps its appearance over time, even with regular use. This makes it an excellent choice for products that need to stand up to daily wear, like kitchen tools and serving boards, while still looking beautiful for years.

  • Does olive wood wrap or crack?

    Olive wood is less prone to warping or cracking compared to many other types of wood due to its dense, naturally oily composition. However, like all wood, it can be susceptible to drying out if exposed to extreme conditions, such as rapid changes in temperature or humidity. With proper care — like regular oiling and avoiding long exposure to direct sunlight or excessive moisture — olive wood maintains its strength and appearance for years. When well-maintained, it retains its shape and durability without warping or cracking, making it an excellent choice for long-lasting kitchenware and tableware.

  • What makes olive wood a unique material for kitchenware?

    Olive wood is unique for kitchenware due to its combination of beauty, durability, and functionality. The wood features striking grain patterns, with rich, warm tones that add elegance to any kitchen. Its dense, naturally oily composition makes it resistant to moisture, odors, and bacteria, which is ideal for kitchen use. Olive wood is also highly durable, able to withstand daily use without warping or cracking. This makes it an excellent choice for everything from cutting boards to spoons, offering both practicality and a touch of artistry in the kitchen.

  • Is olive wood sustainable?

    Yes, olive wood is a highly sustainable material. It is harvested from olive trees that are no longer productive, meaning the trees are not cut down solely for their wood but are often replaced or pruned as part of the natural life cycle of the tree. This ensures that olive wood is sourced in a way that doesn’t harm the environment. Additionally, olive wood’s durability and long lifespan mean products made from it last much longer than items made from softer woods, reducing the need for frequent replacements. By choosing olive wood, you’re supporting a material that is both eco-friendly…

  • Where is your olive wood sourced from?

    Our olive wood comes from Tunisia, where we work with wood from old olive trees that no longer produce fruit. These trees are either pruned or replaced, so the wood is used responsibly without harming active groves. It’s a sustainable process that respects the land and the long life of each tree.

  • What makes olive wood grain unique?

    Olive wood grain stands out for its rich, swirling patterns and dramatic contrasts between light and dark tones. No two pieces are ever the same — each one shaped by the slow growth of the tree over decades. This natural irregularity gives olive wood a distinct character, with veins and curves that often look almost marbled. The grain not only adds visual depth but also reflects the history of the tree itself, making every item crafted from olive wood a truly one-of-a-kind piece.

  • Do you offer private labeling or custom branding?

    Yes, we offer private labeling and custom branding for all of our olive wood products.

  • How to maintain olive wood products?

    Maintaining olive wood products is simple and ensures they stay beautiful and functional for years. To preserve the wood, it’s important to regularly clean your items with warm water and mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals or prolonged soaking. After cleaning, dry the wood immediately with a soft cloth. To keep the wood nourished and protect it from cracking, apply a food-safe mineral oil or olive oil every few months, especially if the wood starts to look dry. This will help maintain its natural sheen and prevent it from losing moisture. Finally, keep your olive wood products out of direct sunlight…

  • Is olive wood good for tableware?

    Yes, olive wood is an excellent choice for tableware. Its natural durability and unique grain patterns make it not only visually striking but also highly functional. Olive wood’s density makes it resistant to scratches, moisture, and stains, which is especially important for items like serving boards, bowls, and utensils. The wood’s natural oils also help protect it from damage, making it ideal for everyday use in dining settings. Plus, its rich, warm tones bring a rustic yet elegant touch to any table, making olive wood tableware both practical and beautiful.

  • Can olive wood tableware be used with food?

    Yes, olive wood tableware is perfectly safe for use with food. The wood is naturally dense and rich in oils, which gives it antibacterial properties and makes it resistant to stains and odors. It doesn’t absorb flavors or liquids easily, making it ideal for serving or preparing food. Whether it’s salad bowls, serving spoons, or cheese boards, olive wood pieces are both functional and food-safe — as long as they’re cared for properly with regular cleaning and occasional oiling.

  • Why is olive wood more expensive than other woods?

    Olive wood tends to be more expensive because of its rarity, slow growth, and the labor involved in working with it. Unlike fast-growing trees used in mass production, olive trees take decades to mature and are primarily grown for their fruit. The wood is only harvested when a tree stops producing olives, making it a limited and responsibly sourced material. In addition, its dense, hard structure makes it more difficult to carve and shape, requiring skilled craftsmanship. Each piece has a unique grain and character, so you’re not just paying for a raw material — you’re investing in a naturally…

  • What is Olive Wood?

    Olive wood is sourced from the olive tree, a hardy, slow-growing evergreen native to the Mediterranean region. Known for its unique combination of strength, smooth texture, and intricate grain patterns, it has been a cherished material for centuries. Olive wood is harvested only when the tree reaches the end of its productive life, ensuring it’s a sustainable and eco-friendly resource. The wood’s rich, golden-brown color and natural resilience make it perfect for creating premium kitchenware and decorative pieces, combining both functionality and timeless beauty.

  • What is the process of crafting olive wood products?

    Crafting olive wood products begins with sourcing high-quality wood from trees that are no longer fruit-bearing. Skilled artisans carefully select the best pieces of wood, paying attention to grain patterns and overall quality. The wood is then shaped using traditional hand tools, ensuring precision and attention to detail at every stage. After shaping, the products are sanded smooth to highlight the wood’s natural texture and beauty. Finally, a food-safe finish or oil is applied to enhance the wood’s durability and bring out its unique grain, ensuring each item is both functional and visually striking.
