Tableware

About FAAY HAUS tableware

Wooden tableware changes how food tastes, which sounds like an exaggeration until you eat soup with a metal spoon and then a teak one. Metal is cold, conducts heat straight into your lip, and leaves a faint tang against anything acidic. Teak does none of that: it comes to the temperature of your hand, holds it, and stays out of the way of the food.

The range covers the pieces people actually reach for at the table — Chinese-style soup spoons with a flat base that sits still in the bowl, round soup spoons with a deeper bowl for broth, large serving spoons for family-style plates, and butter spreaders that move through cold butter without tearing bread.

Because the same moisture-resistant teak is used here as in the kitchen range, these survive real use rather than living in a display drawer. They are hand-wash only, and they should not sit soaking — but neither should any wooden spoon, and treated normally they outlast the flatware set they sit beside.
