Olive wood bowls for antipasti, olives and baguette

Your guests are seated and the wine is open. Now the olives, antipasti and fresh baguette need to go on the table. With these olive wood bowls, you can serve them nicely in seconds. The small bowls are for antipasti. The wave bowl holds olives or peppers. The long baguette bowl is for bread. The warm grain of the olive wood turns a simple snack into a laid table that looks as if it was made for this very evening.

What changes for you

• Your table looks Mediterranean and welcoming without any extra decorating. The lively grain of the olive wood sets the mood on its own.
• You always have the right bowl to hand for every side dish. There are three sizes of antipasti bowl, a wave bowl and a baguette bowl.
• You serve baguette or white bread neatly instead of loose on a board. At approx. 46 cm, the long baguette bowl keeps the bread in place.
• You put something special on the table that nobody else has. The natural wood structure makes every bowl unique.
• Cleaning is quick. A damp cloth is all you need.

Why these olive wood bowls make a difference every day

It's often the little things that make an evening complete. When olives, pickled vegetables and bread sit in warm, grained wood instead of colourful plastic dishes, the whole table looks calmer. You don't need to stage anything. You put the bowls down, and the rest follows. Even on ordinary days, when it's just the family, a simple meal feels a little cosier.

Material & finish

The bowls are made of olive wood with a smooth, strongly textured surface. They feel pleasant in the hand. Dark grain lines run clearly through the light wood. The careful finish means you can enjoy the bowls for a long time. Olive wood is a purely natural material. Each bowl has its own shade. Small knots and irregularities in the grain are normal. Size and shape can also vary slightly. This is not a flaw. It is exactly what makes every bowl unique. The bowls are made in the EU.

• In a café or at a wine tasting: bread and antipasti served with care in olive wood underline the Mediterranean character of what you offer. And they're on the table in seconds.
• As a gift for food lovers: a set of olive wood bowls, each with its own grain. A present that really gets used.

Good to know about olive wood

Olive trees grow very slowly. This makes their wood particularly dense and hard. It also shows the lively, wavy grain it is so valued for. That's why it suits everything Mediterranean so well. Antipasti, olives and fresh bread look right at home in olive wood.

Care & durability

There isn't much to do. After the meal, simply wipe the bowls with a damp cloth, and you're done. They don't belong in the dishwasher, as it would damage the natural wood. This way your bowls keep their smooth surface for many years.
