Know before you buy
While the ceramic is durable, we recommend hand washing this piece to preserve the integrity of the handcrafted sgraffito design and the finish over time.
The spoon rest is designed for a single standard cooking utensil. It is best suited for everyday items like wooden spoons, spatulas, or tongs rather than oversized ladles.
The piece is finished with a clear, food-safe glaze that creates a non-porous barrier. This makes it resistant to staining and easy to wipe clean after use.
The spoon rest is crafted from smooth ceramic. However, as with any ceramic kitchen accessory, we recommend placing it gently on your countertop to avoid any potential surface scratches.
The spoon rest measures 5 inches by 5 inches. Its compact, round design is intended to provide a dedicated spot for your utensil without taking up significant workspace.
