About olive's kitchen utensils
Olive trees are said to have a natural bactericidal effect, are resistant to mildew, and can be used for a long time due to their robust wood.
In order to enjoy the natural texture, it is not colored or painted, but it is finished with edible salad oil. Since it is made by carving out old olive trees as they are, the shape, size, and taste are different from one to another. There may also be knots, small cracks and grooves, and undulations in the wood, but please understand that they are the individuality of natural materials and the warmth of simple handmade products.
Another reason why olive trees are used for kitchen utensils is because of their very dense woody quality. Well-dried olives are very hard and have such a high density that they make a high-pitched sound when tapped.
Due to this property, it retains its strength even after processing, is robust and lasts for a long time, and above all, it drains well, making it ideal for kitchen utensils.
The olive industry of Tunisia in North Africa has supported the "Northern Mediterranean" from ancient times to the present day.
A large amount of olive woodworking goods are also exported to Italy and Spain, mainly to Europe and the United States, and the amount of exports to Japan has been increasing in recent years.
Tunisia's 300-800 years old wood is used. Because they feed on olives and produce oil, productive trees cannot be cut down unless they are legally permitted.
In addition, olive trees are so valuable that it takes about 20 years to grow to a thickness of 10 cm, and the number of trees that can be processed over 300 years old is decreasing year by year, making them "expensive" wood.
The olive tree is not a tree that was grown as a lumber. Therefore, it is characterized by a complex grain that has grown with harsh nature over a long period of time. It is a very hard wood, it is not easy to scratch, the surface is smooth and it feels great to the touch.
