Roman Olivewood (Olea spp.) is sourced from hand‑selected trees growing along the outskirts of Rome. This premium wood is valued for its dense, naturally oily composition and its warm golden‑brown color, highlighted by striking brown and black streaks. Olive trees are traditionally harvested only after they are no longer capable of producing olives.
