Delivery Information

Price Match

These oval platters are cut from genuine olive wood and sold in packs of six, making them a practical choice for operators equipping a full section or building out a cohesive table presentation. Because olive wood is a natural material, the grain, colouring, and surface pattern vary from piece to piece — no two boards in the pack will look identical. For most casual and rustic dining concepts, that variation is part of the appeal rather than a limitation.

At 400mm in length, the oval format is a workable size for a shared starter, a charcuterie or cheese selection, or a single composed plate. The boards handle the pace of busy covers well and carry a 950g weight that feels substantial on the table without being unwieldy for floor staff to carry or set. Olive wood has natural antibacterial properties, which is a practical advantage in a food service environment.

A few operational points worth knowing before committing these to service:

  • Hand-washing only — dishwashers will cause warping and cracking over time
  • Periodic treatment with a food-safe oil extends service life and keeps the surface in good condition
  • Natural grain variation means boards will not match exactly, which suits informal presentation but may not fit every concept

These platters are well suited to restaurants, bistros, wine bars, and casual dining operations where natural-finish tableware is part of the overall aesthetic. They complement slate pieces, textured ceramics, and other organic-finish serveware well. For operations requiring strict uniformity or high-frequency dishwasher cycles, a synthetic alternative would be worth considering instead.

If you are pulling together a full table presentation scheme and want a second opinion on what works well together in service, the team is glad to help.

Frequently asked questions

Can these boards go through a commercial dishwasher?

No — genuine olive wood should be hand-washed only. Repeated dishwasher cycles will cause the boards to warp, crack, and split over time, significantly shortening their service life. If your operation runs high-frequency machine washing, a composite or melamine alternative would be a more practical choice.

How much maintenance do olive wood platters require in service?

Periodic oiling with a food-safe mineral or board oil is recommended to keep the surface conditioned and prevent drying. The frequency depends on how often the boards are washed, but a monthly treatment is a reasonable starting point for most operations. It is a straightforward process and adds little to the maintenance workload.

Are these suitable for a concept where consistency of appearance is important?

Because olive wood is a natural material, colour, grain pattern, and surface character will vary between boards — even within the same pack. This suits informal, rustic, and casual dining aesthetics well, but if your concept requires uniform tableware presentation, a manufactured material would be a better fit.
