Rhododendron Slotted Spoon – Jeff Fryett

Rhododendron Slotted Spoon from Jeff Fryett

Rhododendron is a wood that surprises. Dense, fine-grained, and shot through with warm colour, it has an understated richness that reveals itself slowly — and in Jeff Fryett’s hands, it’s given room to do exactly that. Just axe, sloyd, and hook knife, working with the wood until a slotted spoon emerges that feels like it was always there.

The surface is burnished with a river pebble and sealed with a food-safe curing oil, drawing out the warm, honeyed tones and silky lustre that make Rhododendron such a rewarding timber for those who know it.

Elegant, purposeful, and a pleasure to cook with.
