As we kick off summer and the sun shines brighter and days grow longer, I thought it might be fun to celebrate the latest “graduates” from my carving bench. Like any graduating senior, each spoon in this collection posed for its own portrait highlighting its own personality, quirks, and charm…all the things a memorable yearbook should capture. An archive of our under appreciated youth. So here’s a flip through the “pages” (you have to click and then scroll over for the details) of some standout members of the Class of Summer 2025.

Meet the Summer Graduates of 2025

Class Notes

As with any graduating class, a few of these spoons have already set off to make their way in the world—claimed by cooks, collectors, and kitchens far and wide. The rest are still lingering in the halls of the shop page waiting to be chosen. If one speaks to you, don’t wait too long—summer doesn’t last forever.

Where Are They Now?

In the coming months, I’ll be starting a new feature to spotlight spoons out in the wild—being used, loved, and lived with. If you’ve adopted one of these graduates, I’d love to see where it’s ended up. Share a photo of your spoon in action and tag it with:

#SpoonAlumni

I’ll be curating favorites for a “Where Are They Now” showcase, because these tools are meant to be part of your story, not just mine.
