Product description
Sustainable Garden Ornament | D.O.M. Olivenholz erleben
Gazing balls come in a variety of materials such as mirrored or crackled glass and translucent mouth-blown glass, but there are also wooden gazing balls. These will not break easily if dropped and are a good choice for the garden, rose bed or flowerpot. Like this wooden globe, which is handmade from a single piece of olive wood. Finely sanded, the wooden ball has a smooth texture and a pleasant surface feel. The natural finish shows off the wood's grain colour variation, each one-of-a-kind pieces. The solid olive wood sphere (Ø 8 cm) is mounted on a 1m iron rod. Due to the high strength of olive wood and the high proportion of natural tannic acid in the wood, the ball is resistant to sunlight, moisture and rain for a very long time.

Use & Care
Hand washing is recommended to preserve the quality of the wood. To dry, prop up off of worktop to allow all surfaces to air dry evenly. Wood products should never be washed in the dishwasher. After drying, rejuvenate and protect the wood by rubbing it down with olive oil. Apply the oil liberally and allow it to soak in thoroughly before use. Regular application of olive oil will prevent cracking and preserve the rich natural colours of the wood.
