Vintage Hand-Carved Welsh Love Spoon by Alan Hemming

A beautifully handcrafted Welsh love spoon, carved by Alan Hemming of the Glynborthyn Shop in Crugybar, Llanwrda, Dyfed, Wales. Expertly whittled from a single piece of wood in the traditional style, this piece features intricate motifs including wheels, hearts, and Celtic flourishes, each one symbolising love, luck, and devotion.

This spoon is not only a testament to skilled craftsmanship but also steeped in the folk tradition of gifting love spoons as tokens of affection and intention. Though it bears a small chip on the bowl, as shown in the photos, this only adds to its charm and story, reflecting a life well-travelled and lovingly preserved.

A rare and sentimental find for collectors of Welsh folk art, or a meaningful gift for a loved one.
