Splatters and spills? Not on this catchy spoon rest’s watch. This gem has a picture-perfect shape for cradling your go-to stirrer. It was formed from stoneware, then hand-trimmed and given a creamy glaze all over, all in a small pottery studio in San Diego. Take a close look at the bottom, and you’ll see its raw, natural texture peeking through—a nice little reminder of how it was made. Need some spoons to stir your soups and stews? Luckily for you, we've got those, too. A little peek behind the scenes From their studio in San Diego, the Sawyer Ceramics team dreamed up this wheel-thrown beauty by tinkering with a lump of clay. As practical as they come, it also happens to have that rustic, handmade charm we can't get enough of. Another fun fact: Everything they craft is finished off with a lead-free glaze, so it's all good for use in the microwave, dishwasher, and oven.
