Maple Roman Spatula

The word spatula is derived from the Latin word  "Spatha" meaning "flat broad tool or weapon". In fact early forms of the spatula were discovered to have been used by the Ancient Romans. Modern spatulas as we know it have evolved for a number of uses such as mixing, flipping, scraping and spreading. 

My take on the Spatula incorporates the simple yet elegant design of history with the uses of todays spatulas. Ground to a blunt blade edge, the Roman Spatula is excellent at safely scraping frying pans or pots while the wood provides heat resistance. While the wider front gives it a broader surface for mixing and light flipping. Use of two Roman Spatulas also makes for great salad hands.

*All our utensils are finished with a food safe mineral oil. Wipe clean with wet soapy cloth, quick rinse and leave to air dry. DO NOT put into dishwasher or leave submerged in sink.

*Please note that due to variance in natural wood grain and from being handmade, Roman Spatulas may differ slightly in colour, shape or thickness from the ones shown in the photos.
