Olive wood is the perfect wood for making beautiful wooden objects. The wood is extremely hard and dense, making it naturally more stain and odor resistant than most other woods. Additionally, olive wood has unique and beautiful color variations, showing dramatic shades of dark and light patterns, making it exceptionally beautiful.
You can bring the spirit of the Holy Land to your home with this simple olive wood kitchen spoon. From baking to cooking, it has multiple uses, but we love using it with a wooden spatula to serve salads. (Spatula and wooden spoons are sold separately)
Care for your handmade Olive Wood Spoon
- You can season your olive wood spoon by rubbing it with olive oil.
- Hand wash with a mild detergent in warm water. (Do not leave it to soak in water as this will weaken the wood fibers and may lead to splitting)
