Carved by hand from locally sourced olive wood, this larger board offers both presence and practicality, shaped for moments of gathering as much as for daily use.

Its expanded surface makes it ideal for serving multiple dishes, breads, or small plates, while still working comfortably as a chopping board in the kitchen. The weight and scale give it a grounded feel, something made to be used, shared around, and returned to often.

The natural grain of olive wood moves across each piece in its own way, with rich tones and patterns formed over years of growth. These variations are never repeated, giving every board its own quiet character.

Shown here styled with handprinted snack bowls from the West Bank, the larger size allows space for serving combinations with ease, bringing together different elements on one considered surface.

Bethlehem Olive Wood

Olive wood carving in Bethlehem is one of the oldest continuous woodworking traditions in the world, shaped over centuries in a place where the olive tree has long been part of daily life.

Artisans work with wood from pruned branches or ageing trees that no longer bear fruit, allowing the material to be used without harming the life cycle of the tree. Each piece is carved slowly by hand, guided by the natural grain, which forms its distinctive flowing patterns over decades of growth.

What has been passed down through generations is not only a technique, but a way of working that values patience, care, and a deep connection to the land.
