Each item is produced by respecting the most important values of the company which are the people, the material and the environment. All of our olive wood items come from agricultural orchards and each tree is cut with respect to the laws that protect each country and the use of olive wood. Our production is organized so that we use 100% of the wood. Our olive wood items are produced from very old trees (trunk but mainly branches), which no longer bear fruit. In essence, the wood is sustainable as opposed to being discarded. Any time a tree is procured, the purveyor needs administrative permission.
To prevent the wood from drying, occasionally apply some vegetable oil, food safe mineral oil or beeswax.
Do not put in the dishwasher.
These suggestions will help keep the products in good condition for many years.
