The wooden spoon rest is an essential for any kitchen, made from prunings of olive wood trees in Palestine. The wood is smooth from the sanding and the oil finishing, so it'll both balance and stir your culinary concoctions beautifully. To keep olive wood kitchen utensils in good condition it's recommended to treat them with oil from time to time after washing.

Prunings extracted from olive trees in the Bethlehem and Jerusalem area are aged for three years and then shaped into the mineral oil-finished stirring spoons, honey drips, and lemon squeezers seen in these photos.

Bethlehem Star Olive Wood Factory faces great odds and yet is still one of the city's top manufacturers of hand-carved olive wood kitchenware.
