Black Walnut Eating Spoon – Jeff Fryett

Hand-Carved Black Walnut Eating Spoon

Black Walnut is a timber with presence. Rich, dark, and deeply grained, it has a natural elegance that needs little embellishment — and in Jeff Fryett’s hands, it gets none. Just axe, sloyd, and hook knife, working with the wood until a 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 deep chocolate tones and silky lustre that make Black Walnut so enduringly prized by craftspeople the world over.

Compact, considered, and a pleasure to eat with.
