" Linnupette Lusikad" "Trick the birds" spoons.
The idea of “Trick the birds” spoons were born in Saaremaa, at the edge of home farms fields. Artists sketches of fragile oat is the source for the form of the spoons.
In Estonian folk religion trick the bird means food or piece of bread, which had to be eaten before leaving the house during the early spring time. Because otherwise, the very first bird you hear will trick you. It's a kind of magic to take the piece of bread, it will neutralize the bad power of the bird.
My biggest mission is to honour the food and to make every meal as a special ritual.
“Trick the bird” spoons are dedicated to my ancestors, who were farmers.
