Natural benefits of olive wood in the kitchen
Olive wood is renowned for its exceptional hardness and density, making it particularly well suited to chopping boards. Its dense structure minimises the risk of bacterial growth and makes the board less susceptible to moisture and staining. Olive wood is also naturally rich in oils that provide a degree of protection against drying out. The oil-treated surface adds further protection and brings out the wood's natural colour tones and distinctive grain patterns.
Practical design with thoughtful details
The integrated handle makes the board easy to manage, both during food preparation and when serving directly from the board. The leather strap allows for convenient hanging, so the board can serve as a decorative feature in the kitchen when not in use. The compact 27x13 cm size makes it ideal for smaller cutting tasks and serving, without taking up too much space on the worktop or in a cupboard.
Care and maintenance
To preserve the board's beautiful appearance and functionality, proper care is essential. Always wash by hand with mild soap and lukewarm water – never in the dishwasher. Dry thoroughly after use and avoid leaving it standing in water. To prevent drying out and cracking, it is recommended to treat the board with food-grade oil (such as mineral or coconut oil) at regular intervals. With the right care, this chopping board will last for many years.
