Small serving spoon carved from birch wood.

This spoon is treated with linseed oil and the previous with hemp oil, I find that birch wood really absorbs the green pigments from the hemp.

Handcarved scoop part of a ladle made from dry plum wood and treated with linseed oil resting on a knotty large larch board.
The woodpiece was naturally curved (a curved branch) that hinted at the shape of a ladle after splitting it apart.

Handcarved ladle made of plum wood freshly treated with linseed oil resting on a knotty large larch board.
Not sure for what I am going to use the ladle yet. So far I used it to scratch my back, shoulder and other parts of my body...

My left hand holding my handcarved spoon from plum wood freshly treated with linseed oil. Not sure it is more a small long ladle or a bigger long spoon.

My very first handcarved spoon from plum wood treated with linseed oil.
Took me quite a long time (fiddled around with it for quite a while) to arrive to this final result. Closed the knots with sandust (using a 80grid from the same wood) and glue (titebond III). After sanding down the spoon in many places, I carved the entire surface again, to give the whole spoon more individual handmade character.

My very first handcarved spoon from plum wood treated with linseed oil.
I found a piece of wood that I had set aside about four years ago and thought was too good to burn. It was already a bit dry and cracked, but managed to carved a spoon out of it freehand. It's simple and not perfectly symmetrical. I had to work around the natural features (branches, warping, wood grain)
Not sure it is more a small long ladle or a bigger long spoon.
