Eating with wooden items is so much more enjoyable than their metal and plastic counterparts. They function so well with every meal, and can even be used to stir and serve food if needed. I love carving spoons like this, as wood is such a rewarding material and environmentally friendly. Plus the tree gets to live on after it has come down for whatever reason. The hawthorn used for this spoon was gifted by a local tree surgeon. It’s my first experience of the wood and this piece was beautiful. Perhaps I’ll come by a bigger supply in the future but for now this is a very limited wooden spoon! Spoons make a wonderful treat for yourself or another.

Full description
A hand carved, asymmetrical head Hawthorn wood eating spoon for right handers. The deep, warm tones of this spalted Hawthorn wood has a great aged look to it. It’s the first hawthorn spoon I’ve been able to offer so don’t be shy as I’m not sure when I’ll get this wood again!
The spoon has been made from a freshly cut log, taken to its final shape using traditional methods- splitting the log firstly into a 'blank', drawing a rough shape before axing out and then finalising the shape using an array of knives. This leaves beautiful cut facets which mean no sanding is required. After drying, the spoon received a final shaping by knife and two white stripes painted in milk paint to contrast the wood tones. The spoon is then burnished using a smooth Scottish pebble leaving a silky feeling to the wood. Finally the wood is sealed using organic food grade linseed oil.
This eating spoon makes a wonderful daily use item and is perfect for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It equally travels well either in a lunchbox, backpack or even a shirt pocket. Treat yourself or a friend to something that will be loved, used and grow old with you. With use, wooden spoons like this develop a lovely aged patina.
Spoon care- Hand wash using soap and water and leave to air dry. Avoid long soaks in water and never wash in a dishwasher.
Your spoon will be dispatched to you in recycled, eco-friendly and plastic-free packaging. This can be put into composting or your paper recycling bin.
