Silver spoon now available on Etsy!
It is solid sterling silver and hand-forged. Forging (hammering) from thick silver stock is one of the most traditional methods used to make flatware. It can be a laborious process, but is one that results in a unique, beautiful, and functional spoon.
More spoons will be added in the coming weeks, so check back often!

"You might think of yourself as knowing history because you
know some names and dates. But the feel
for history is all brims and tail fins and flying buttresses, in all their typical
variety. It is style that sorts the
countless times around us into some kind of receding sequence, and
simultaneously makes us aware of how they loop back through the present. It is style that lets us live in our own
moment, or in some accidental or some curated past, or in all of them at once.
Forget about clocks and calendars. Style
is one of the basic ways that we tell time and it is just about the only way we
tell history, or at least the only way that we perceive history around us. Without style, history is just a story."
