Horn - Boiled egg spoon

According to age-old tradition, a horn egg spoon is the only spoon to eat a boiled egg with as it doesn't taint the taste of the egg!

Each spoon is individually hand carved and finished by highly skilled craftsmen, using Vietnamese water buffalo horn.  In Vietnam, water buffalo is a meat source and forms part of their daily diet.  If the horns were not re-purposed into cutlery, this raw material would be cast aside and incinerated, releasing carbon into the atmosphere and creating a waste product.
