Jebeili Olive Soap
Jebeili Olive Soap
Handmade Virgin olive soap crafted using traditional Syrian methods is a labor of love, rooted in centuries of heritage. The process begins with hand-picking premium olives, typically from ancient groves. These olives are then crushed and mixed with water, creating a fine olive paste.
Next, the olive paste is carefully cooked in large copper cauldrons over a gentle fire, allowing it to slowly saponify. This traditional method ensures that the soap retains its natural glycerin, resulting in a luxurious moisturizing lather.
Once the mixture reaches the right consistency, it's poured into wooden molds and left to cool and solidify. After several days, the soap is hand-cut into individual bars and stamped with intricate designs, each representing the artisan's unique touch.
What sets Syrian olive soap apart is not just its craftsmanship, but also its natural ingredients and gentle properties. Rich in antioxidants and vitamins, it nourishes and protects the skin, leaving it soft and supple. Plus, its earthy aroma evokes the lush Mediterranean landscape where the olives are grown.
In a world of mass-produced products, handmade Syrian olive soap stands as a testament to tradition, quality, and the enduring beauty of artisanal craftsmanship.
