🌿 Meet the stirring spoon that tells a story. Hand-carved from certified sustainable wood by Diego, a skilled artisan from the shores of Lake Atitlán in Guatemala, this beautiful utensil brings warmth and character to any kitchen. No two spoons are exactly alike — that's the whole point. It also makes a thoughtful, meaningful gift for anyone who loves to cook, host, or simply live a little more intentionally.

✨ Features

  • 🪵 Hand-Carved Sustainable Wood: Made from certified sustainable reclaimed wood — Coffee, Laurel, and Macawood options available, each with its own natural grain and colour variation.
  • 🤝 Fair Trade & Ethically Made: Crafted by Diego, his wife Raquel, and their nephew Pedro, who earn a fair, living wage for their skilled craftsmanship.
  • 🛡️ Finished with Raw Tung Oil: A food-safe finish that protects the wood from moisture and daily use, helping it last for years.
  • 📏 Practical Size: Approximately 7½" in overall length, with a spoon head of approximately 1½" wide — comfortable to hold and easy to use.
  • 🎨 Truly One of a Kind: Because each spoon is hand-carved, measurements, grain patterns, and tones will vary slightly — making yours genuinely unique.

💚 Benefits

  • 🍋 Versatile in the Kitchen: Use it to stir drinks like lemonade, iced tea, or cocktails, or reach for it when serving condiments, jams, and more.
  • 🌎 A Purchase That Gives Back: Every spoon supports sustainable livelihoods for a small family of artisans in Guatemala — your kitchen upgrade does real good.
  • 🎁 A Gift Worth Giving: Beautifully natural and ethically made, this spoon is a lovely gift for housewarmings, birthdays, or anyone who appreciates handmade goods.
  • ♻️ Eco-Friendly Choice: Made from reclaimed wood with a natural tung oil finish — no synthetic coatings, no unnecessary waste.
  • 💛 Supports Women-Led & Local Artisan Communities: Part of the Upavim Crafts family, a brand committed to fair trade and community empowerment.

🧼 Care Instructions

  • Wash by hand with soap and warm water — avoid soaking or dishwasher use.
