Know before you buy
No, this spoon is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the wood's integrity and prevent cracking, you should hand wash it with mild soap and dry it immediately.
The spoon measures 15.5 inches in total length. This extended reach makes it particularly effective for stirring deep stockpots or serving from large dutch ovens.
Each spoon is handcrafted from locally sourced wood native to the Greenfield, Indiana area. Because they are made from natural materials, the specific wood species and grain patterns may vary slightly from piece to piece.
To keep the wood in top condition, we recommend periodically applying a food-safe mineral oil or wood conditioner. This helps prevent the wood from drying out and maintains its natural luster over time.
Yes, the spoon features an ergonomic design specifically shaped for a comfortable grip. The handle is balanced to provide leverage, making it easy to use for both everyday cooking tasks and serving.
