Wild Olivewood Soup Ladle

Country of Origin
Kenya
This beautiful oversize soup ladle is a very unique fair trade gift from Africa. The shape is reminiscent of simpler eras and hearty meals, and with a little care, the ladle can be used for years to come.
 
Each ladle is handcrafted from the beautiful East African hardwood species known as wild olive. This slow-growing tree has a rich undulating wood grain that adds dramatic tones to serving pieces, a specialty craft of the Kamba tribe of eastern Kenya.
 
A great housewarming or hostess gift. Sold singly.
