Simple Cherry Serving Spoon:
This simple cherry serving spoon is a cook's all round favourite, perfect for cooking large dishes and serving up delicious meals straight from the pan. The shovel shape of the spoon enables you to cook and serve your meal in one swoop

The hollowing marks are still evident in the bowl giving these a textured and undeniably wonderful handmade feel.

This cherry spoon was carved from a cherry tree which was planted by Tim Hutton the founder of the Wild Circle Retreat 25 years ago, on his beautiful small holding by the river camel on Bodmin moor. 

The woodland he planted was a mixture of oak, chestnut and some quicker growing cherry trees which recently needed to be thinned out so as to create some light in the canopy for the slower growing chestnuts to come up

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.
