Moonspoon
Handcrafted wooden kitchen utensils made from select Pennsylvania cherry wood. Every part of what I choose to do in my business would be considered sustainable and always has been.
MoonSpoon® is designed by Jonathan and Julia Simons. Jonathan is an artist and furniture maker. About thirty six years ago he started making wood spoons and has designed them ever since.
Design cut out on Moonspoon will vary, not necessarily what is pictured.
Today Jonathan is known as 'Jonathan Spoons'.
When Jonathan met his wife, Julia, also an artist, they chose to put their design ideas together and make their own unique line of wooden spoons.
When MoonSpoon® began the design was a simple carved “moon” on a spoon. They wanted to be certain their unique art concept of cutting wood spoons with a laser could work and it did. As Jonathan and Julia continued experimenting over the years the designs became more inspired and inventive.
