Care Instructions
-
Hand Wash Only: Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Never soak in water or place in the dishwasher, as this will cause the wood to crack and the inlay to lift.
-
Dry Immediately: Wipe off excess moisture with a soft towel after each use.
-
Condition Periodically: To maintain the deep glow of the olive wood, rub with a food-safe mineral oil or beeswax every 2–3 months.
-
Avoid Sunlight: Store away from direct sunlight or heat vents to prevent the natural wood from drying out.
