peace dove spoon rest

Description

The peace dove spoon rest is handmade ceramic, round with a notch for the spoon. A customer came in requesting a spoon rest and I thought, ” I need a spoon rest too!” My most appreciated and useful products are always those I need myself. The spoon rest line has grown as customers request new designs. I always love to hear your suggestions for new product.

The peace dove spoon rest measures 5 inches in diameter and is glazed front and back. Every spoon rest is food safe and easy to clean with soapy dish water.  A spoon rest is a useful gift for anyone. It will both brighten up your stovetop and keep it clean.

I have added a hole at the top of the peace dove spoon rest. You may hang it on the wall as a decoration when not in use. Collect several spoon rests and arrange them on your wall as decor! The dragonfly and bee spoon rests would be lovely with the peace dove.

Handmade & painted ceramic peace dove spoon rest; food safe and functional.

I roll out clay and press it into reverse relief tiles I made from a master tile. This process is like making a print, but using clay rather then paper. Next, I press the peace dove relief into a shallow bowl so if the spoon has gloop on it, that will stay in the bowl. I cut a notch for the handle of the spoon. The spoon rest dries and is fired to bisque. Afterward, I paint in the details with underglazes, adding the details and flow glaze that defines the background pattern. Finally it is fired once more with clear coat that seals the clay body in a thin layer of glass. This guarantees it is food safe and durable.
