Wood Cooking Spoon
Wood Cooking Spoon
When I have some downtime in the office, when I’ve got a problem I need to think through, or when I’m stuck in a zoom meeting, carving useful objects out of wood gives my hands something to do.
These Cooking spoons were inspired by Josh Nava’s spoons during his 365 Spoons Project back in 2014. I learned SO much about carving from Josh, and his aesthetics show up prominently in my work today. They’re sturdy enough to bang on the side of a pot or scrape the bottom of a pan, and are meant to be USED in the kitchen. They are 12-14” long with a 2”-3” wide bowl.
NOTE: Because these are hand carved, expect natural variations in wood grain patterns and minor differences in overall shape. Our carved items are sold with the facets from the carving process intact. They are then lightly sanded to smooth any roughness and coated with a natural Walnut Oil and Beeswax finish. Wood selection is determined by the current availability of different woods, and while I can’t individually photograph and list each individual spoon, rest assured that you will be getting a strong, beautiful spoon made from wood I sustainably felled right here on my farm (walnut, cherry, persimmon or ash).
