Seven share the same design in the bowl: red flowers with green leaves rising from a small vase, inside a black patterned border with red and green dots. The eighth has a single flower with rays around it and a rope-pattern border. Each handle carries a small spray of red flowers and green leaves and ends in a point. The fronts have a glossy orange-gold varnish, and the backs are plain orange-stained wood with the carving facets left visible. They suit a kitchen wall, a plate rack or a shelf display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBackground\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePainted wooden spoons, called kasik, are a traditional craft of Anatolia and are linked especially with the city of Konya. They are decorated with flowers and vases like these, and pairs of them are also played as clappers in Turkish folk dance. This set is unmarked and undated. The painting is done by hand, so each spoon differs slightly, and some have pale pink or blue touches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood used condition with no breaks or cracks seen.
