Handmade Teak Ladle

Teak Ladle

This beautifully handmade kitchen utensil, is made  from sustainably harvested Teak. Teak is very very hard, strong, and very durable. This ladle can be used in hot soups, broths and curries, heat is not a problem. Unlike metal utensils it will not transmit heat, and being natural wood it will not leach any chemicals into your food.

Each of these is individually made. You can see the love and care that has gone into each, how they have spent time making the wood perfectly smooth by hand sanding 5 separate times. By the way the grain in the wood has been brought to the fore.

This ladle is 34 cm long, the handle is 2.5 cm thick at its widest point, the head is 8 cm's across and 3 cm's deep.

There are no chemicals or lacquers or dyes used in making this, it is only the natural wood, so it is completely food safe. Handwash only and make sure it dries before storing it away, and if needed it can be re-oiled from time to time with a food safe oil. Follow these simple instructions and it will last a lifetime

This is individually handcrafted. The purchase of it helps maintain a village and the surrounding environment, enabling skills to be learnt and passed on.
