Rippled Rays Spoon
A beautiful hand carved eating spoon, carved with a generous bowl from sycamore wood. The Medullary rays have really popped on this spoon, it is really quite psychedelic! 

The spoon was lightly baked and finished with organic linseed oil 

Where Did My Spoon Grow?!
This spoon was carved from a Sycamore tree which grew on the Dartington Estate in Devon, UK. The tree was felled as part of a woodland management plan to thin out Sycamore and let other species less developed species thrive. 

Spoon Care:
This spoon is designed to be cooked with and well used - don't be afraid to use it on a daily basis! The only thing to avoid is putting it in the dishwasher, or leaving it to soak in the washing up bowl.

I always make sure my spoons are bone dry before putting them away in the drawer.

To give the spoon a new lease of life from time to time you can add a coat of Tung oil, flax oil, walnut oil (careful of nut allergies) or linseed oil, but this is not essential.
