About ArtWood

Artisan crafting olive wood

A Legacy of Craftsmanship

ArtWood was born from a deep respect for nature and a passion for preserving traditional Mediterranean craftsmanship. For over three generations, our family has been working with olive wood, transforming fallen branches and pruned wood into functional pieces of art.

Each piece we create carries the warmth and character of the Mediterranean sun, the resilience of ancient olive trees, and the skill of our master artisans. We believe that everyday objects should be beautiful, sustainable, and tell a story.

From our workshop to your home, we're committed to creating products that honor tradition while embracing contemporary design sensibilities.

Our Core Values

The principles that guide every piece we create

Sustainability

We use only sustainably sourced olive wood from managed groves, ensuring minimal environmental impact.

Craftsmanship

Every piece is handcrafted with attention to detail, combining traditional techniques with modern design.

Community

We support local artisans and preserve traditional craftsmanship for future generations.

Excellence

We're committed to creating products of the highest quality that will last for generations.

Our Story

Our journey began in the heart of the Mediterranean, where ancient olive groves have stood for centuries. My grandfather, a master woodworker, recognized the unique beauty and durability of olive wood and began crafting simple kitchen utensils for our family.

Word of his exceptional work spread through the village, and soon neighbors and friends were requesting his creations. What started as a hobby became a family tradition, passed down through generations and refined with each passing year.

Workshop and tools

Today, ArtWood continues this proud legacy, combining time-honored techniques with contemporary design. Our workshop brings together master artisans and young apprentices, ensuring that traditional skills are preserved while embracing innovation.

We work exclusively with olive wood from sustainably managed groves in the Mediterranean region. Each tree has its own story, its own character, visible in the unique grain patterns and rich honey tones of the finished pieces. No two items are ever exactly alike.

Our commitment extends beyond craftsmanship. We believe in fair labor practices, environmental stewardship, and supporting the communities where we work. When you choose ArtWood, you're not just purchasing a product— you're becoming part of a story that spans generations and connects cultures.
