Wooden Dinner Spoon

I am a Wooden Dinner Spoon. Can't think of anything better than diving head first into a bowl of soup!

Curator's Notes 

The good thing about wood is that it is safe from shattering which makes it great for children. We see this spoon being used for the full span of an individual's life for that reason. It also has a touch of warmth to the hand and tongue that cannot be replicated with other materials.

Wooden Dinner Spoon was curated by Stevenson Aung.
