A Silkwood Traders natural wood wine or olive oil bottle holder starts life as a jackfruit tree from managed plantations. After being harvested each wine holder is carefully prepared to ensure correct balance, hand-painted and layer upon layer of clear lacquer applied over a period of several months. In between each layer of lacquer, the item is left to dry, sanded back and then another layer applied which highlights the beautiful grain of the wood. It also results in a strong and robust finish which can withstand most bumps and drops. But always better to be safe than sorry so we always advise to handle with care. After all, it took three months to make! The natural wood wine or olive oil bottle holder is very easy to use. Just place on a flat surface with the hole facing upright to either your right or left and place the neck of the bottle through the hole. Ensure the neck is nice and securely through, then gently let go. The wine bottle will balance! Try pushing the neck further through or further back for even more extreme balancing effects! And, as long as you've put the cork or lid back on nice and tightly, you can use it even if your bottle has been opened. Jackfruit tree wood, which is used to make our natural wood wine or olive oil bottle holder, is truly a magic tree. Not only does it produce the largest fruit in the world, it does so over and over again each season, providing a cheap, plentiful, nutritious food source, medicines, wood for timber, dye for clothes, glue and food source for goats! Each tree can grow up to 150 jackfruits over the two harvest seasons it can have each year making it an invaluable food source. It has even been hailed as a miracle solution to alleviating starvation in many areas of the world and as a way of meeting the challenges of climate change which could see traditional crops in some areas of the world die out.
