Why olive wood makes a lasting gift

• Unique: carved by hand from a single block, with a grain pattern no other piece shares.
• Durable: olive wood is one of the densest fruitwoods; used and cared for properly, a board lasts for decades.
• Personal: free laser engraving, done in Switzerland, with a name, a date, a message or a logo.
• Responsible: the wood comes from pruned branches and old trees at the end of their productive life; nothing is felled to make it.
• Food-safe: finished with food-grade sunflower oil only, no varnish (care instructions).

Delivery and timing

We ship from Switzerland. Within Switzerland, delivery takes 3 to 4 working days and is free from CHF 25 (CHF 7 below). Engraving adds 1 to 2 working days. For Christmas, order engraved pieces by mid-December to be safe.
