Sycamore lavaspoon #20
£35.00
Length: 17cm (6 1/2 inches)
Bowl width: 4.5cm
Bowl length: 6cm
Finish: milk paint and hemp seed oil
This is a one off lavaspoon with an extra bit of crank from a piece of pale wood that might be sycamore. It’s been hanging around for a little while in my basket of nearly finished spoons and I’ve forgotten what I carved it fromo I finished and painted it and it turned out nice with an extra slim neck and smooth thin bowl. It’s listed separately here as it’s not my standard lavaspoon eater shape. It’s a one off.

Blackthorn eating spoon #17
Length: 18cm (7 inches)
Bowl width: 4.5cm
Bowl length: 6cm
Finish: hemp seed oil
This blackthorn spoon has a symmertic bowl making suitable for left or right handers. It’s an exceptionally beautiful piece of blackthorn heartwood with lots of lovely dark red tones in handle as well as the bowl. Note that over time the red will most likely fade to a dark brown but it’ll still be gorgeous. Blackthorn is prunus family like plum and damson and shares the same exceptional colours. It usually grows as a prickly shrub on scrub land and in hedges and it’s rare to get large enough pieces to carve like this entirely from the heartwood. This was from Llangrannog in west Wales where an overgrown lane side was cleared back to allow traffic to pass more easily.
