Made in France from a single piece of the finest olive wood, this handcrafted ladle offers original beauty (no two are identical) and exceptional convenience in the kitchen. The ladle provides a long handle that keeps hands a safe distance from the heat and a deep, rounded head that works well for serving soups, sauces, gravies and more. The use of wood not only brings the beauty of nature indoors, but it has also been found to be more hygienic than plastic.
