They are all made in Sycamore Acer pseudoplatanus, it is a very nice wood to work with hardly any figure so I chip carved some basket weave patterns into the handles.
A couple of the servers have pot hooks on the handle to stop the spoon from slipping into the pan.
Here they are pictured in my spoon rack
Simon, great looking spoons. I love your designs as well on the handles. I just finished my fourth spoon and it's up on my blog.... I think I'm hooked now...
ReplyDeletethanks for the inspiration, Doug.
Beautiful work on the spoons. I'm just getting into carving spoons. I'm starting to ask my parishioners to keep me in mind when they cut or trim fruit trees or other woods like Sycamore. Being a woodcarver myself, I especially like your carving details as that makes them unique. Blessings.
