Product Story

These aren't just spoons—they're sculpture you can use. Carved from single pieces of Kenyan olive wood by artisans whose hands know the grain like old friends, each spoon carries the warm, honeyed character that only comes from trees and time. The elongated design makes them perfect for stirring tall drinks, but their organic beauty means they're equally at home serving appetizers or simply displayed as art. Olive wood's natural variation means no two sets match—some might show dramatic grain patterns, others subtle swirls, each reflecting the tree's unique story. The smooth finish comes from patient hand-sanding, not machines, giving them a tactile quality that feels alive in your hands. Whether you're mixing cocktails for friends or serving olives at a dinner party, these spoons elevate every moment from routine to ritual.

Know Your Piece

Origin & Maker

Hand-carved by traditional woodworkers in Kenya using carving techniques passed down through generations. Each spoon is shaped from sustainably sourced olive wood, chosen for its beautiful grain patterns and natural durability. The carving process requires patience and skill—artisans work with hand tools to respect the wood's natural character and create pieces that celebrate organic imperfection.

Styling Ideas

Perfect for cocktail hour—use for stirring tall drinks, mudling herbs, or serving garnishes. Great for mixing iced tea, lemonade, or sangria. At dinner parties, use for serving olives, small appetizers, or condiments. Display in a ceramic crock on your kitchen counter as functional art between uses. The warm wood tone complements both modern and rustic table settings beautifully.

Impact & Sustainability

Made from olive wood sourced through sustainable forestry practices that support Kenya's reforestation efforts. Olive trees are incredibly long-lived and regenerative, making them an eco-conscious choice. Direct partnerships with artisan cooperatives ensure fair wages and preserve traditional woodcarving skills. The natural finish requires no synthetic treatments, keeping the process chemical-free from tree to table.

Shipping & Returns

Ships within 2 business days directly from artisan workshop or nearby stocks. Returns accepted within 60 days of delivery (please review full return policy). Note: Natural wood grain, color variations, and slight size differences are inherent to handmade items—these characteristics make each set authentically unique, not defective.
