Collection: Peace Collection
“One of humanity’s earliest legends, the Great Flood, features the olive plant. In the biblical version, Noah dispatched birds to see if the waters receded. When a dove finally returned, holding a branch from an olive tree in its beak, the Ark’s passengers knew that they could once again live upon dry land, which led to the olive branch coming to symbolize peace.”
Our peace collection contains only olive wood to represent world peace on our tables.
The olive wood's dramatic grain pattern is mostly swirling because the trunks are not completely round and the color turns from yellowish-brown to dark brown as the tree becomes old.
