Thanks Ian. It started off as a cooking spoon, hence the pointy bit. I tried making the stem slim enough to look like it held the leaf. As a result it's too thin for cooking, and the wrong shape for eating. I have more Rowan and I'm on the look out for a piece of Ash the right size to make a small, leaf style, bowl/dish as a light serving set. It's more than strong enough for this purpose.
