GeniusesOfWood Spoons

Yes. Because they are made from natural beech wood, these spoons are soft enough to use on non-stick surfaces without scratching or damaging the coating.

While you can use them immediately, applying a food-safe mineral oil or beeswax conditioner before your first use will help protect the wood from moisture and staining. We recommend oiling them periodically to maintain the wood's longevity.

No, these spoons are not dishwasher safe. High heat and prolonged exposure to water will cause the wood to crack, warp, or splinter. Hand wash them with mild soap and warm water, then dry immediately.

Beech wood is a relatively dense hardwood, which makes it less porous than softer woods. However, like all wooden utensils, they can absorb strong odors over time if not cleaned properly. Regular oiling helps create a barrier that minimizes this absorption.

Because each spoon is individually handcrafted from solid beech wood, the natural grain, color variations, and character marks are unique to every piece. This is a hallmark of artisanal woodworking rather than a defect.
