Spalted Maple Log No. 01
This maple limb was found after a storm in my local neighborhood here in Needham, Massachusetts. At an estimated 56 years old, its rings tell the story of decades of growth, and its spalting creates patterns that only Mother Nature herself could paint. (Read more about the magic alchemy of spalting in my blog!)
A rare find, this single limb has been transformed into a small, signature collection of functional art.
From this roughly 3-foot-long, 7-inch-diameter log, I’ve hand-carved five spoons and two spurtles. Each piece is one-of-a-kind—a tangible connection to the tree, the storm that brought it down, and the craft of spoon carving that brings its story to life.

This Month's Spoon
Celtic Knot Flat-Tipped Cooking Spoon
Hand-carved from black birch • One-of-a-kind • $50
A Celtic knot runs along the handle, carved using traditional kolrosing—a knife-cut pattern filled with finely ground coffee for a warm, lasting contrast. The design speaks to continuity and connection, fitting for a spoon meant to be used daily for years to come.


Thoughtfully made. Meant to be used.
Spoonweather creates thoughtfully crafted wooden spoons, hand-carved from sustainably sourced wood. Some are shaped for everyday cooking, others for meaningful gifting, and some begin with a custom idea drawn from life — a memory, a place, or a person worth honoring.
Every spoon is one of a kind, carved with care into an heirloom-quality kitchen tool meant to be held, used, and folded into daily routines — not tucked away.
From practical everyday spoons to personalized custom commissions and limited-edition pieces, each Spoonweather spoon reflects a deep respect for the material, the craft, and the people who use them.
“These spoons are functional art — beautifully made, thoughtfully designed, and a joy to use every day.”
— Emily, longtime Spoonweather customer

— Laurel, custom commission
“The spoon was a standout gift — meaningful, beautifully crafted, and something our whole family was genuinely moved by.”
— James, custom commission
Have a story you'd like turned into a spoon?
Some commissions begin with a sketch. Others start with a memory, a favorite flower, or a person you want to honor. You don’t need to have it all figured out—just a sense of what matters most.

Spoonweather
I began carving in 2020 after noticing how many freshly fallen branches were being cleared during walks with my golden retriever, Coco. What started as a hobby quickly grew into a way of making heirloom-quality kitchen tools by hand — and when thunderstorms and lightning roll through, it just sounds like Spoonweather to me.
Each spoon is hand-carved from fallen New England wood — branches that would otherwise be chipped or discarded, shaped instead into one-of-a-kind pieces of functional art. No two are the same. Grain, spalting, knots, and small imperfections are left visible, honoring where the wood came from and what it’s become.
While some pieces are collected, every Spoonweather spoon is made to be held, used, and folded into daily routines — not tucked away. I hope each spoon brings the same sense of care, joy, and connection to your kitchen that carving them brings to my workshop.
