Carved by hand from locally sourced olive wood, each board carries the quiet beauty of a material shaped over time.
The surface is smooth and generous, making it as suited to preparing ingredients as it is to serving breads, fruits, or small dishes at the table. Its weight and balance give it a reassuring presence, something made to be used often and kept close at hand.
The natural grain of olive wood runs through each piece in its own way, forming patterns and tonal variations that cannot be repeated. These markings are part of the life of the tree, giving every board its own character.
Engraved with “Olive wood from Bethlehem”, it holds a subtle connection to the place it comes from, while remaining a timeless and functional piece within the home.
Each piece supports artisans in Bethlehem, helping to sustain traditional olive wood carving as a source of dignified, fairly paid work.
A portion of proceeds is shared with marginalised communities through our ongoing partnership with human rights organisation Restless Beings.
For every order placed, we also plant a tree, contributing to long-term environmental restoration.
Olive wood carving in Bethlehem is one of the oldest continuous woodworking traditions in the world, shaped over centuries in a place where the olive tree has long been part of daily life.
Artisans work with wood from pruned branches or ageing trees that no longer bear fruit, allowing the material to be used without harming the life cycle of the tree. Each piece is carved slowly by hand, guided by the natural grain, which forms its distinctive flowing patterns over decades of growth.
What has been passed down through generations is not only a technique, but a way of working that values patience, care, and a deep connection to the land.
We support makers and farmers near and far through fair wages and thoughtful partnerships.
We choose natural, biodegradable materials and eco-conscious or plant-based dyes where possible. While we avoid single-use plastic, we reuse any that arrives with deliveries to reduce waste.
A percentage of every order goes to marginalised communities, and every purchase plants a tree.
