Know before you buy
Because these boards are crafted from retired olive trees, every piece features unique grain patterns and organic shapes. While the dimensions will be consistent, you should expect natural variations that make your specific board one-of-a-kind.
Yes, olive wood is exceptionally dense and durable, making it an excellent surface for chopping and slicing. Its hardness helps it resist deep knife scarring better than many softer woods.
Olive wood is naturally dense and nonporous, which prevents it from absorbing liquids, odors, or bacteria. This makes it a more hygienic choice for food preparation compared to more porous wood types.
To maintain the wood's luster and prevent cracking, hand wash the board with mild soap and water, then dry it immediately. Periodically apply a food-safe mineral oil or beeswax conditioner to keep the wood hydrated and protected.
No, you must hand wash this board only. Dishwashers use high heat and harsh detergents that will cause the natural wood to warp, crack, or split over time.
