Elias Livadaras is a passionate woodworker from Greece who transforms salvaged olive tree trunks into functional art. Based in a small mountain village, he spends days selecting the perfect weathered pieces, then carves tables and utensils that preserve the wood's natural grain and age marks. His workshop smells of sawdust and olive oil, and he often says each piece tells a story of the tree's hundred year life under the Mediterranean sun. Elias Livadaras 18
