Laser engraving a personalised date on an olive wood cutting board

Not just handmade, but also customizable

Most of our pieces can be laser-engraved in Switzerland, free of charge: a first name, a date, a short message of up to 35 characters, or your own logo. The engraving is burnt into the wood, so it does not wash off or fade, and it adds only 1 to 2 working days to your order.

Our wood

From an old olive tree to your table

Our olive trees have stopped bearing fruit. Their wood was bound for the charcoal kiln. We give it a second life instead: not one tree is felled to make a Nawara piece.

Each block is sawn, cut and sanded by hand by artisans in Tunisia who have worked olive wood for generations, then finished and engraved in Switzerland. What reaches your table carries decades of slow growth in its grain.
