Hand-carved Tunisian Olive Wood has a history as rich and interesting as the history of the country of Tunisia and of its people. The diversity of cultural influences and the traditional wood-tuming skills that are passed down from one generation of craftsman to the next, combine to create unique, one-of-a-kind olive wood pieces that are truly works of art.
Mediterranean olive wood is heavy, dense and durable, with a distinctive red pigment in its grain. Colors also range in nuances of cream to dark brown, with irregular gray, brown, and black lines. The complex and irregular veins give the carved wood the appearance of marble. It is one of the most expensive woods around, and it is rare to find olive wood carvings, or even olive wood in the United States.
The olive wood is interesting, in its own right, with no two grains being alike. Olive wood is easily recognized and differentiated from other woods by its unique and aesthetic grain. The artistically smooth and exotic grain of the olive wood, tags it as the most creative wood known to man. It is very difficult to match the grain of two pieces since the pattern is completely hidden in the heart of the wood. This durable wood needs only an occasional rubbing with olive oil to bring out the pattern of the wood grain.
