About Olivewood: Olivewood comes from the Olive Tree and is a hard and dense wood that takes many years to mature. Olive trees are native to the coastal Mediterranean Sea and they grow naturally as well as domestically cultivated in North Africa, Western Middle East, and Southern Europe, with the largest worldwide producers of Olives being Greece, Italy, Spain, and Morrocco. Though this tree is native to the Mediterranean, it is also grown in some southern U.S. States. Because of the Olive trees limitations in environment and long maturity time (50 to 75 years or more to fully mature), Olivewood tends to be a more expensive wood as compared to faster growing trees such as Pine, Cedar, Maple, or even Walnut. Here's a fun fact for you, the Olive Tree can live to be 300-600 years old, with the oldest known tree to be 2000 years old, and still bearing fruit, in Greece.
