I made this sterling silver sugar spoon with wood bowl last year.  The texture was hammered into the handle of the spoon and resembles woodgrain.  The soft milky white finish on the bowl of the spoon was achieved by raising the fine silver -  silversmithing process that I've been involve with for some time.  I love the contrast of the white fine silver paired with the polished edges and the texture.  I wanted to give the spoon a modern and natural feel using subtle yet contrasting details.  Adding the wood bowl seemed to be the perfect accessory!
