19th Century French Hand Carved Wooden Cream Ladle from Provence

$140.00

A beautiful example of rural craftsmanship, this 19th Century Hand-Carved Wooden Cream Ladle from Provence captures the essence of country life in the pre-industrial kitchen. Lovingly shaped by hand from a single piece of hardwood, this big ladle was likely used in a cuisine de ferme {farm kitchen} for skimming cream, stirring milk, or serving porridge—essential tasks in the rhythm of daily Provençal life.

The handle features gentle wear from decades of use, the shallow, rounded bowl retains the rich patina of age, with subtle tool marks still visible—a quiet testament to the artisan’s skill and the ladle's long service. At one time someone used it on the stove. Woodworm has been treated. Whether displayed in your French Country kitchen, hung among other culinary antiques, or admired as a stand-alone piece, this ladle brings with it the warmth and simplicity of 19th-century country living. It's a special nod to French chefs from long ago. Julia would approve!

  • Measures 16" long.
