Welcome to the Website of Lovespoons Wales

 

Give a gift of love - a love letter carved in wood.

All the lovespoons created by Lovespoons Wales are individually hand carved, and thus, each and every lovespoon from Lovespoons Wales is unique. There are no machine made Lovespoons on this site, nor on the sister sites Romantic Wedding Favours and Welsh Lovespoons

With each Lovespoon individually hand carved, dispatch is 4 - 6 weeks approximately. If you need a lovespoon sooner, please email us before ordering, and we will try to accommodate you.

If you cannot find what you are looking for, or if you have a design in mind, please contact us, as commissioned lovespoons can be under taken.

History

As their eyes met across the Welsh village square, he knew what was needed. He had to hand carve her a lovespoon. Any available time over the coming months, would be spent carving the spoon. He had his pen - knife, a scrap of sharpened metal to act as a scraper, and so his labour of love had begun.


He would need to show his intended's father that he was good with his hands, vital in rural Wales, and he hoped that his love would see his carving as an indication of his desire to build a home with her; and so the carving of the lovespoon would continue.
