Know before you buy
No. Because each piece is handmade and hand-painted by a single artist, there will be slight variations in the brushwork and details, making every spoon rest a unique, one-of-a-kind item.
To preserve the hand-painted finish and the integrity of the ceramic, we recommend hand washing with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers or putting it in the dishwasher, as this can damage the artisanal glaze over time.
At 9 inches in length, this spoon rest is designed to accommodate standard serving spoons and spatulas comfortably. It provides ample surface area to keep your countertops protected from drips and heat.
Every authentic Henriot Quimper spoon rest is signed by the individual artist who painted it. This signature serves as a guarantee of its origin and craftsmanship from the historic French workshop.
Yes, it is crafted from high-quality faience, a traditional tin-glazed ceramic. While it is durable enough for daily use on your countertop, it should be handled with the care typically afforded to fine artisanal pottery to avoid chips or cracks.
