Know before you buy
Yes, the olive wood construction is gentle on non-stick surfaces and will not scratch or damage your cookware coatings.
This spatula must be hand washed only; it is not dishwasher safe. To keep the wood from drying out and to maintain its natural grain, periodically apply a food-safe mineral oil.
This is a stiff, one-piece spatula. It is designed for durability and provides a firm grip, making it ideal for flipping heavier items like burgers or serving portions.
Because each piece is handmade from natural olive wood, every spatula features unique grain patterns and color variations. No two pieces are exactly alike.
The spatula measures 12 inches in total length with a head width of 3 inches, providing a comfortable reach for most standard stovetop cooking.
