The Store is Now Open!
First two spoons for sale
After much work and planning, my “Unique Utensils” are finally ready to sell. Here are the first two:
These are both large eating spoons made from the same piece of American Holly. The grain is straight and smooth, and the wood is an ivory white. They are sealed with Walnut Oil, which has a more neutral flavor than Linseed, brings out the grain of the wood a bit better and polymerizes for a long-lasting seal. Walnut oil also gives a very smooth, matte finish that feel good in the hand and the mouth. Walnut oil is more expensive, but well worth it!
Here is Spoon #1 you can see that these are strong and sturdy:
The back of this spoon has some nice color.
Here is how it fits the hand:
Spoon #2 is almost pure white except for a little dot.
This continues through the handle.
This one also fits the hand nicely.
I ship using USPS Ground, which is the least expensive option that includes a tracking number. If you prefer Priority Mail or another shipping option, international shipping or would like to combine shipping on multiple items to save a little money, please email me at judson@judsoncarroll.com
As always, my woodwork is sustainably sourced from trees that are storm damaged or that must be thinned. Each piece is entirely hand made in the ancient greenwood tradition. I use only a hand saw, a small axe and knives. Each piece comes with a handwritten, numbered and signed document. These are heirloom quality spoons that, if properly cared for, will last for generations.
