🌿 Sustainably Sourced Olive Wood
The olive tree, revered across the Mediterranean, offers us its most beautiful legacy through its wood once its fruit-bearing days are over. At Verdant Grain, we transform this sacred resource into timeless pieces of art. Every XO letter is hand-carved from richly grained olive wood—making each piece truly unique.
Our artisans work with small batches of ethically sourced wood, ensuring eco-conscious craftsmanship and minimizing waste. The result: a beautiful, long-lasting piece with a story you can be proud of.
