About Us
The culture of olive trees in Tunisia dates from the eighth century BC, even before the foundation of Carthage by Queen Dido. The Phoenicians were the pioneers of olive cultivation in North Africa.
In Tunisia, the direct heir of ancient carthage,the carthagians began to plant olive trees throughout their territory in the island of cyraunis, cape good in Bysacium and especially around hadrumète
Tunisian olive wood counts as one of the best, rare and beautiful olive wood in the world, as it has been always known with the distinctive red pigment in its grain which creates a wonderful nice honey color.
All carvings we produce of this hard wood have a varying and smooth grain, making every piece extraordinarily unique and no two are alike .it is difficult to match the grain of two pieces .As the tree ages, the wood will become darker and richer in color thus making it even more beautiful .you can estimate the age of a particular piece by examining its grain .very old trees have a dark grain while younger trees exhibit a lighter color.
After certain age the olive tree becomes damaged and unproductive and to keep up with the peace of nature, very old trees has to be replaced with a new ones. So we only use in our work the largest salvageable branches.
IN THE PROCESS NO YOUNG TREE IS EVER DAMAGED OR DESTROYED.
