Description

Every board is one of a kind. No exceptions.

Olive wood is unlike any other timber we work with. The grain is wild and flowing, the colour ranges from pale cream through golden honey to deep amber and chocolate, and the natural figuring — those extraordinary swirling patterns — is entirely random and entirely unrepeatable. Every olive wood chopping board we make is genuinely individual. Not in the way that all handmade things vary slightly, but in the way that no two boards could ever be mistaken for one another.

Our olive wood chopping boards are handmade in our Surrey Hills workshop and finished with our food-safe oil, which brings out the full depth of colour and grain in the timber. Available in a range of sizes, each board can be left perfectly plain — because olive wood needs no help — or engraved with lettering or a carved motif for a more personal touch.

Olive wood is naturally antibacterial, hard-wearing, and develops a beautiful patina with regular use and oiling. It is also relatively lightweight, which makes these boards as practical as they are beautiful.

These make outstanding gifts for people who appreciate genuinely special objects — for housewarmings, significant birthdays, weddings, and anyone who loves to cook and values beautiful tools.

All engravings are in capitals as standard; lower case available on request. Allow 7–10 working days.

Care Information

Finish: All our olive wood boards leave the workshop treated with multiple coats of our 100% natural, vegan-rated, food-safe chopping board oil — no solvents, no hardeners, just pure plant-based oils that are completely safe for food contact.

Aftercare: Olive wood has a lower natural moisture content than oak or walnut, which makes regular oiling especially important. We recommend treating your board with our food-safe chopping board oil on a regular basis to keep the timber supple, prevent drying, and protect against staining and discolouration. Our oil is available on the website.

Daily care: Always hand-wash with warm soapy water and dry immediately — never put your olive wood board in the dishwasher or leave it submerged in water. Keep away from direct heat, direct sunlight, and damp surfaces. Avoid leaving moist foods on the surface for extended periods.

About olive wood: Each olive wood board is utterly unique. The extraordinary grain patterns, knots and colour variations are entirely natural and cannot be replicated — no two boards will ever look the same. Olive wood can develop very fine hairline cracks over time, particularly if it dries out; regular oiling is the most effective way to keep this to a minimum.

Do not store outside, in a garage, or in any space subject to damp or temperature extremes.
