The Olive Wood

There are few trees that have been the basis for a culture and provide most of the resources for life. One of them is the olive. An ancient tree that is grown throughout the Mediterranean sea and, in large part, is our hallmark.

Over 5,000 years ago the Egyptians used their oil or aromatic baths given to illuminate their temples. Its wood, according to Pliny, could only be burned on the altars during religious rites. Since then branches have been a symbol of peace, wealth or wisdom. And although the Phoenicians were the first to cultivate in the regions of Palestine and Lebanon, it was the Romans who introduced it in our country.

Its wood is ocher with darker streaks that are very attractive drawings. It is also very strong and durable, making it ideal for the craftsmanship of mortars and cutting boards.
