Admittedly, this is an odd pic. Well, the lighting isn't good in my kitchen so I took the cast iron pot/dutch oven that I use most often and sat it on a tea towel on a white fabric piece furniture for background. The point is that it allows you to see how this Scandanavian style ladle hooks on to the pot. This the same design I used for the Gumbo Stirrer I posted last week. I love this design, and I use it in my own kitchen. I just hook the spoon or spatula on the side of the pot or pan while cooking and everything is right there when I need it.
Thank - yep I designed these for my kitchen. They hook onto a wall rack for storage or the side of a pot. It is very convenient to have the tool you need at hand, just like a towel tucked into the belt for drying hands or to grab a hot pan or mise en place... I design for efficient utility as much as asthetics.
We’d hang these towels over the handle of the oven, and it helped them dry a lot faster. One of my cousins would hook it around her apron to wipe her hands as she cooked. They were quite handy.
Mine did the same... probably a Frech thing! The first tool of a chef is the knife, after that, the towel. We may. thing the pot or pan would be first, but our ancestors originally grilled
That handle design looks very convenient! It would eliminate the need for a spoon rest/holder thing and the potential for mess that those bring.

Your mentioning the towel reminds me of what my great grandmother used to make. It’s kinda hard to describe, so I found this picture on the internet for an example: https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3uGC_nuEtds/Tvnsbd3kDpI/AAAAAAAAAPM/oIh6DlQ4Rf4/s1600/IMG_1518.JPG
