Two heritage brands, Bordallo Pinheiro and Esporão, have joined forces to create Olival, an unprecedented collection that unites the production of high-quality olive oil with the best traditions of artistic earthenware. Inspired by the symbolic olive tree and the whitewashed houses of the Alentejo landscape, Olival embodies these timeless traditions that require patience and skill. This charming setting, brimming with rustic wisdom and beauty, is reflected in the pieces' white surfaces and textured details, faithfully evoking the whitewashed houses. Hand-painted ceramic reliefs featuring olive branches, textured trunks, and olives in various stages of ripeness adorn the white surfaces. Olival represents the confluence of two ancient Mediterranean art forms, two traditional Portuguese skills, and two iconic brands that have graced Portuguese tables for generations. The collection encompasses a plate, jug, salad bowl, dessert plate, cheese plate, and olive oil tasting cup, offering a truly aesthetic and sensory experience that bears the unmistakable stamp of Bordallo Pinheiro and Esporão.
