The rustic Dolfi ashtray, made of fine olive wood, evokes the sacredness of a thousand-year-old tree, a symbol of peace and longevity. Although not directly associated with a specific saint, olive wood is deeply rooted in the biblical and Christian tradition. The olive tree is mentioned from the Old Testament as a sign of divine blessing and reconciliation (the dove with the olive branch after the Flood). In the New Testament, Gethsemane, the place of Jesus' prayer before the Passion, was an olive grove. Olive oil is used in Christian sacraments, such as Baptism, Confirmation and Anointing of the Sick, symbolizing grace, healing and consecration. Buying an olive wood object means bringing a piece of this rich spiritual history into your home, a tangible reminder of faith, hope and harmony.
