This light coloured bullace or wild plum spoon has darker heartwood on one side and distinctive speckling through the bowl. The wood is very hard and durable, it’s going to be a joy to eat with. It’s a bit cheaper as it’s an old spoon that turned up recently when I tidied my workshop.
Cherry wood eating spoon #2
Length: 17cm (6 3/4 inches)
Bowl width: 5cm
Bowl length: 6.5cm
Finish: hemp seed oil
This chunky eating spoon is typical of my recent carving. The bowl is deep enough at the back to hold plenty of liquid but shallow at the front to eat off comfortably. The handle is thicker than you might be used to but oval in profile with a facetted top surface and rounded below to make it extra comfy to hold. Cherry like this with some dark growth rings doesn’t come along very often.
Elm crook eating spoon #6
Length: 18cm (7 inches)
Bowl width: 4.2cm
Bowl length: 6cm
Finish: hemp seed oil
This elm spoon was made from a crook, a bent section of the branch, so the grain runs through the bown. Notice how there long oval rings in the bowl rather than the circles you see on some straight grained spoons. This makes the spoon stronger and the thin, slightly narrower bowl, makes it great eating spoon for main meals like rice based dishes. The elm dries very hard and should last many years of regular use.
