{"product_id":"roses-olivewood","title":"Rose's Olivewood Serving Board","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eSome boards are just a surface. This one has a face — the grain pools and swirls across it like weather across a sky, and no two are ever the same. At 15 × 30 cm (about 6 × 12\"), it's the size that earns its keep: room to work on at the counter, handsome enough to carry bread, cheese and cured meats straight to the table. The handle and the hanging hole mean it lives in plain sight, not buried in a drawer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eReach for a plastic board instead and it sheds into your food — every knife cut breaks micro-fragments loose, the same microplastics now turning up in human blood, in the placenta, even in the brain. A single plastic board can shed millions of particles into food over a year. Olive wood sheds nothing: one solid piece, no coating, no additives, nothing to leach into what you're about to eat. 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 holds onto them in its grooves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eOlive wood is one of the hardest timbers on earth — tight, dense, grown slow under the Mediterranean sun. It won't scratch your good pans the way metal and hard plastic do, won't soften or warp at the edge of a hot dish, and won't dull your knives the way glass and plastic can. It's just wood, doing quietly what the old material always did better than the new one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThis is olive wood worked in the tradition Rose's Olivewood was born from — the way olives have been shaped for generations in the Mediterranean, against a world of throwaway plastic. Give it a little oil now and then and it only deepens: warmer, richer, a patina that becomes yours over the years. No two grains match. The one you bring home will be only yours.\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":"6\" x 12\"","offer_id":53268801290576,"sku":null,"price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/6070\/8176\/files\/hf_20260708_165449_76403fc2-268c-4e81-8c99-8fa01030d08d.png?v=1783530201","url":"https:\/\/rose-olivewood.com\/products\/roses-olivewood","provider":"Rose Olivewood","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
