Wooden Utensil Holder - Ash by Such & Such

This beautifully simple wooden utensil holder is handmade in England from Ash wood sustainably sourced within the UK. A kitchen utensil holder is usually an overlooked item yet it is present in the vast majority of homes and likely used on a daily basis. This Wooden Utensil Holder was designed and made with a desire to elevate such everyday kitchen essentials. Hand turned by myself from a single piece of Ash Wood, the utensil holder is sanded by hand to create a smooth, tactile finish. The natural colour and grain of the Ash is magnificent, and so the Utensil Holders are left untreated, providing a natural matt finish. By not treating the wood with any oils or waxes, it is possible to fully appreciate and enjoy the tremendous character in the wood's grain and the beautiful natural colour tones. The wooden utensil holders measure (approx) 11cm in diameter, 17cm in height and have a rim that is 0.7mm thick. This exquisite handcrafted item eliminates the need to hide your utensil holder out of sight and instead have it front and centre on your kitchen worktop, as a carefully crafted object that is both beautiful and practical Designed by Alastair. Each utensil holder is individually made and finished by hand, requiring multiple hours of work. As each one is handmade using a natural material, there will be variations in the grain and colour of the wood, and also slight variations in size, which is indicative of the material and the hand made process.
