About the object : Thanks to this hand-turned and carved olive spoon, you can easily and almost elegantly separate olives from the marinade and arrange them to enjoy - and with its 18 cm length, you can also fish them out of deeper glasses or bowls. An extremely useful, beautiful and decorative utensil. Durable and sustainable.
Manufacture: The product is made from fruit or garden wood that comes almost exclusively from private gardens in the Bremen area, the surroundings of Hergen Böttcher's workshop. The wood dries for several years before the objects are worked out of the wood. Hergen Böttcher selects the wood individually for each object and turns and carves by hand in such a way by hand so that the special characteristics of the tree's life remain visible: Color changes between heartwood and sapwood as well as ingrown knots. Growths or natural discolorations can give the pieces unique structures. Deformations or cracks are signs of the drying process and are just as intentional as long as they do not impair the function of the object.
