This is a spoon from apple wood that I carved before Christmas. Jarko says it looks elven. I can quite imagine Elves in Rivendell eating with such spoons.
So I made another spoon like that - also from apple wood but this piece has a nice golden color. I tried to carve the same shape.
And here are both spoons. They may look the same at the first sight, until you notice the place where the handle meets the bowl. I carved the notch too deep on the upper spoon and it disrupted the harmony of curves somehow. It does not look ugly but it is different than I wanted it.
So here is the moral: measure twice, cut once! Little details matter.
