yew number 2
a purple and orange
small west coast yew spoon
bent bottom end
fits perfectly in hand.
parts are similar to the color of spoon 1
but there are bright purple and burgundy ribbons throughout
it's amazing.
made from the same small branch that spoon 1 was.
so i've included the story of spoon 1 below
just in case you're interested in some
history on this little beauty.
do you know of yew?
i didn't really,
but my dad today
told me about it.
he said,
as tradition goes yews are never cut.
what he meant was that
when plots of land are logged
the yew is left standing.
he said,
you know how sometimes you see
one tree,
left lonely
in the middle of logged land.
i said yes,
then he said,
those are often yew trees
so the wood for this spoon
was never logged,
never saw the inside of a store
and has never been sold before.
but rather,
came as a small scrap to him
from a friend.
a small branch he carved into
this beautiful spoon.
it's really special
in that way
and equally rare.
17 cm long
medium depth spoon
