Olive wood is a very hard wood, great for grinding spices. What's more, the stunning natural patterning of olive wood makes this a really beautiful mortar and pestle. As a result of this olive wood mortar and pestle being hand-crafted the size of the mortar may vary slightly with each product, approximate diameter is 12cm / 4.5". Due to the natural colour and grain of olive wood no two pieces are ever the same. The natural oil content of olive wood means that it kills bacteria and is therefore more hygienic than other wood or plastic products. All our olive wood products are finished with wax and oil and so will not taint any food it is in contact with. These hand-made pieces are carved out of a single piece of wood so are rare as well as being unique, beautiful and durable. All of our olive wood products are ethically produced. Our products are made from the wood of trees which no longer produce fruit, and trees are continually being replanted to replace ones used to produce our products. Maintenance:
Olive wood will last a lifetime if it is properly looked after. To keep your olive wood products looking their best please follow this advice: - Hand wash only, not suitable for dishwashers
- Occasionally coat with olive oil to prevent the wood from drying out
- Do not leave soaking in water or exposed to heat or sunshine
