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.
