Utensil Cup (15cm) - European Olivewood

Description

An olive wood utensil holder for the kitchen counter — sized for spatulas, whisks, wooden spoons, and the long-handled tools that don't fit cleanly in a drawer. Doubles handsomely as a tall vase or pen pot.

Dimensions: Approx. 15 cm tall x 9.5 cm diameter (top)

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 utensil cup.

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.
