Bouls Olive Tree 50 mm
The olive tree needs a lot of time to grow, it can even reach a biblical age. Its very dense, durable and hard wood has a subtle basic texture, which is broken up by greenish-brown veins and cloud-shaped spots. The olive tree gets its character from its warm, golden-brownish colouring and the beautiful dark wavy lines that can be seen in the longitudinal section.
