A kitchen classic and staple with our ergonomically designed handle and a teardrop shaped bowl, it also features a small carved trough at the tip of the bowl to help control and direct when pouring making it incredibly kinesthetically intuitive. Handle measures 13 inches which will allow you to reach right down to the bottom of your pot. *Cherry* Similar to maple but with a more tanned overtone that will also patina and become darker with age and use. *Walnut* A deep brown hardwood that both blends in and stands out in any kitchen, this has been a long-revered option for its durability and natural antibacterial properties for centuries. *Care* Never leave wooden utensils to soak or leave them submerged in liquid for extended periods of time. Hand wash only with dish soap, oiling when necessary with mineral oil or any other food-safe non-perishing oil of your choice. *Disclaimer* Please note the unpredictability of nature and that no two wood grains will be the same. The photos above are to give reference to the expected color and characteristics of the wood chosen and yours will be totally unique to your item received, making it all the more special or so we hope you feel too. Shown here is walnut, also on offer is cherry with more photos coming soon. *Pictured here is the ladle in the right-hand configuration. This utensil is made either left or right-handed, please don’t forget to choose from the menu which you’d prefer when adding to your cart.*
