This Large Hand Painted Lilac Daffodil Wooden Welsh Love Spoon has been painted by hand by Hayley Doroshenko in her North Wales based studio.
The spoon's traditional shape is laser-cut from thin plywood, sourced from a Welsh company in Cwmbran. Drawing inspiration from her Ukrainian and Welsh heritage and her passion for folk art, Hayley hand-paints each spoon with a unique floral design, making every piece truly one of a kind.
Historically, love spoons were given as tokens of love and devotion, carved by young men to showcase their care and craftsmanship to a potential partner, symbolising their ability to provide for a future family. Hayley’s lilac daffodil design is a contemporary twist on this cherished Welsh tradition while preserving its romantic significance.
This love spoon makes a loving gift for Valentine’s Day, Santes Dwynwen - the Welsh Valentines celebrated on January 25th, or for special occasions such as weddings or anniversaries.
