{"product_id":"roses-olivewood-serving-plate","title":"Rose's Olivewood Serving Plate","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe plate you bring out when the food deserves it. At about 9.5 inches across it's the right size for a single beautiful course — a wedge of cheese and figs, a few slices of bread and oil, a piece of cake, a plated starter — with a low rim that frames what's on it. Set on the table, the wood does half the styling for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eAnd here the grain really is the point: a flat round face is a whole canvas of olive wood, and no two are alike — waves of honey, amber and deep bronze swirling across the surface, a pattern this tree spent a lifetime writing. Yours is only yours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eReach for a plastic plate instead and it sheds into your food — every knife mark and warm serving breaks micro-fragments loose, the same microplastics now turning up in human blood, in the placenta, even in the brain. This gives nothing back: one solid piece of olive wood, no coating, no additives, no plastic taste, no odd smell, just wood. And it's naturally cleaner — a University of Wisconsin microbiologist showed decades ago that 99.9% of bacteria die on a wooden surface within minutes, while scratched plastic clings to them in its grooves. Olive wood is dense and hard-wearing, warm to the touch and light to carry — the kind of piece that looks better the more it's used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThis is olive wood in the Mediterranean tradition Rose's Olivewood was born from — a warm, lasting piece against a world of throwaway plastic. A little oil now and then and the grain only deepens with the years. It makes a quietly generous gift, too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eHand wash and dry — never the dishwasher, and don't let it soak; oil it when the wood looks dry.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rose Olivewood","offers":[{"title":"9.5\"","offer_id":53269367193936,"sku":null,"price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/6070\/8176\/files\/hf_20260709_165637_851b6e20-af94-4a8c-8e97-d4830c00ed0e.png?v=1783616366","url":"https:\/\/rose-olivewood.com\/products\/roses-olivewood-serving-plate","provider":"Rose Olivewood","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
