Ladle - European Olivewood

Description

A generously sized olive wood ladle for the soup pot, the punch bowl, the stew on the back burner. The natural grain of the olive wood reads warm against any kitchen palette.

Dimensions: Approx. 30 cm long x 7.5 cm wide

Why it's here: Olive wood is one of our favourite materials in the kitchen and dining room. The tight grain makes it tough and naturally resilient to bacteria, not to mention beautiful — every piece is unique and handmade, with patterning that runs differently through each cut. We source ours from European olive trees whose branches are pruned each year as part of the agricultural cycle of harvesting olives, which makes it one of the most sustainable hardwoods you can put in a kitchen.

What you're getting: One handmade olive wood ladle.

Care: Do not put in the dishwasher. Hand wash only. If the wood starts to look dry, rub a little olive oil into the grain with a paper or cotton towel — the lustre will come right back.
