Birch Wood Salad Server Set with milk paint and chip carved handle

A hand carved, matched pair of salad servers in birch wood with milk paint and chip carved handles. In wonderful scandi colours. The compact size makes them ideal for smaller salad bowls or taking on a picnic! The servers have been made from a freshly cut log, taken to its final shape using traditional methods- splitting the log firstly into a 'blank', drawing on a rough shape before axing out and then finalising the shape using an array of knives. This leaves beautiful cut facets which mean no sanding is required. After drying, the spoon receives a final shaping by knife and decorative handle added, before being painted using food safe milk paint. The servers are then burnished using a smooth Scottish pebble leaving a silky feeling to the wood. Finally the wood is then sealed using organic food grade linseed oil. Treat yourself or a friend to something that will be loved, used and grow old with you. With use, wooden spoons/servers like this develop a lovely aged patina. Spoon care- Hand wash using soap and water and leave to air dry. Avoid long soaks in water and never wash in a dishwasher. Your spoon will be dispatched to you in recycled, eco-friendly and plastic-free packaging. This can be put into composting or your paper recycling bin.
