Product Details
Since 1892, French company Bérard has specialised in wooden products for the kitchen and table. This olivewood salt pot is ideal for storing or serving flaky or chunky salt, as wood absorbs moisture to keep the salt dry, while the magnetic closure keeps the salt secure. The salt scoop fits inside the salt pot; there is a nook for the handle to rest to the side of the pot, just under the lid. Olivewood is known for its warm hue and strong contrasting grain pattern. Its density also helps it resist stains and odours more than other woods. The timbre comes from non-fruiting olivewood trees around the Mediterranean. Due to its unique grain pattern, no two olivewood pieces are alike.
Why we love it
'If you’re using delicate, flaky salts like Maldon or Cornish salt crystals, which have a lovely natural texture, it’s better to put them in a salt pot like this instead of grinding. We love how it can move easily between kitchen and table.'Specifications & Care

About The Brand
Berard France
Based in the Drôme region of southern France, Berard has specialised in olivewood and Mediterranean wood products since 1892. Olive and other hardwood trees are individually selected to ensure strength and durability before the creation of products, always from branches that are removed as part of the standard pruning and maintenance cycle rather than cut or uprooted. Production takes place in local workshops across Italy, France, Spain, Albania and Tunisia—as close as possible to the source of the wood in order to minimise the carbon footprint and environmental impact.Shop Berard France
