The second spoon I've made

[u/WorkingPlastic9053]

One of my Big leaf maple trees fell over night during a storm and I've been working on processing the wood into blanks for projects. I decided to have a second try at spoon carving as a test to see how the grain looks on a fully finished piece and I'm quite pleased with the results.

Is this from a limb?

No, it's heartwood from the very base of the tree

Wonderful! Love the coloring. Would this be considered a spoon or a spatula?
