Simple Walnut Wooden Spoons

I have a hefty vintage spoon collection I've amassed over the years—but occasionally, the shape of a new spoon is so compelling that I can't pass it up. I fell in love with the "tall" spoon shape and its gently tapered handle. It felt great at first, but I've had to do a couple rounds of sanding to get it to where I wanted it to be. The wood needs very regular oiling, much more than my other spoons, and occasionally a pass over with fine sandpaper. If you're willing to put in some extra effort, these will be great spoons for years to come. If you're looking for something that is perfect from the get-go, you might be less happy.

Hi. I have now purchased 3 walnut utensils. I do love the overall quality and look of these wooden beauties. However I must say the general texture of both spoons is a little rough. I had hoped even for this natural wood to be more finished. I use olive oil on them all but that hasn’t really helped much. Thank you, Louise Magrino

The head snapped off when I was stirring a tiny pot of polenta (the small skinny one). It was nice while it lasted.
