Sieve as you serve with AARVEN’s scoop spoon with holes. Hand-carved in Kenya using wild olive wood, it’s the perfect size for fitting into jars of pickled goodies like olives, onions, and gherkins.

WHO MADE YOUR SPOON?
AARVEN's contemporary wooden products are hand carved in a Nairobi workshop run by one of the founders of the popular Maasai Market in Westlands, Zephania.
These items are made from Wild Olive wood that is all sustainably sourced from Zephania’s own plantations in his hometown, Kissi, where he continually re-plants trees.

CARE
Olive wood has an excellent reputation for being harder and less porous than other woods. We recommend hand washing your wooden utensils with a mild washing up liquid and warm water. Avoid boiling water and dishwashers as high temperatures may cause the wood to expand and split. Always towel dry after washing to prevent moisture cracks.
Treat your handmade wooden utensils once a month with a food safe mineral oil (we like to use olive oil). Simply rub in a small amount with a soft cloth to condition the wood and restore its warm, polished look.
*The same measures apply to wooden utensils with horn or bone accents.
