I sell olive wood and know how much it costs me, my customers and their customers. The costs are a)for sawing and kiln drying b) carriage

I know of people who will charge £10 for a bowl and some who charge as much as £950 (admittedly that's burr, not olive). Both of them sell their stuff. I also make and sell both turned items and things like bar tops etc.

My experience is that if you're selling stuff that's nicely made, people will buy it. The price depends on where you're selling it and to whom you're selling it.  I've sold charcuterie boards to some clients for 3x the price others have paid for the same thing. The high prices were for a Russian couple living near Wentworth who were using a management agency to buy things (who presumablyalso had a cut). Much lower prices can be obtained in the impoverished NW of England.
