Hand‑carved from North American Cherry (Prunus serotina), this 10‑inch spoon embodies both beauty and utility. Cherry wood is celebrated for its fine, smooth grain and warm reddish hues that naturally deepen over time, developing a rich patina with every use. This aging process is one of cherry’s most distinctive qualities, giving each piece a sense of history and character as it matures in the kitchen.
Strong yet lightweight, cherry is durable enough for daily cooking while remaining gentle on cookware surfaces. Its resilience and stability have made it a favorite for fine furniture and cabinetry, and here those same qualities translate into a utensil crafted for everyday tasks. The spoon is finished with hand‑rubbed polymerized walnut oil, which enriches the wood’s natural warmth and provides a food‑safe protective layer. Responsibly sourced and crafted by Gentry Crafted, this spoon is designed to serve as both a practical tool and a timeless piece of functional art.
