Decorative Spoon Carving Techniques edited by Emmet Van Driesche, published by Mortise & Tenon

Following the success of Greenwood Spoon Carving, Emmet Van Driesche returns with a new title dedicated to the decorative side of spoon carving. While Emmet is well-known for his minimalist and functional spoon designs, this book showcases the many ways wooden spoons can be enriched with intricate and beautiful detail.

For this collection, Emmet invited some of the most accomplished carvers and craftspeople from around the world to each contribute a chapter on their specialist technique. The result is a richly illustrated, highly instructional book featuring a wide range of decorative methods. All the team at Woodsmith are so excited about this one!
