4" Handcarved Lovespoon Keyring
Carved from the same piece of wood for couples to carry a piece of each other with them . Option to choose laser-engraving of Initials if you want it. The finish is a polished natural light oak coloured beeswax.
Hand carved by Marianne at her workshop in South Wales, the wood is sourced from the local historic Wentwood Forest.
The custom of giving carved lovespoons as love tokens began in Wales in the 17th Century although ornamental carvings in many forms can be dated to much further back. Today, these are given as gifts to people all across the World to celebrate special life events such as engagements, weddings, anniversaries, christenings, graduations and more. They make excellent wall hangings alongside family photos and other emotive ornaments which bring joy to your heart. The tradition sees a lovespoon being carved with various symbols which signify the meaning of the gift. The spoon could be as simple or as complex as the skills of the carver allowed and the symbols include the following:
Heart = Love
Bells = Wedding or Anniversary
Lock = Security
Cross = Faith
Why not have a little bit of Welsh Heritage and symbol of your love right in your pocket.
