A Pair of Pocket Spoons - Fall Special!
These were carved from the same piece of Holly, so I think of them as a "his and hers" set, but of course you could keep them both for yourself, give them to your kids as a gift, etc. I usually charge $25 per (with $5+ covering shipping), but to celebrate the season, I am offering both spoons for $30 (including shipping).
You will notice that the spoons are not identically carved, although the color pattern on the wood is matching.... well, what would be the fun in that?! I think one has more feminine lines and the other more masculine, but that is just my opinion. Holly is very strong and a bit flexible, with a very fine grain. I think that is perfect for small spoons like these because I can make them are light, with thin bowls. They are sealed with Walnut Oil.
As always, my woodwork is sustainably sourced from trees that are storm damaged or that must be thinned. Each piece is entirely hand made in the ancient greenwood tradition. I use only a hand saw, a small axe and knives. These are heirloom quality spoons that, if properly cared for, will last for generations.
