Back to ladles

I have had a couple of requests for ladles - so as part of my bowl hammering over the weekend I started work on 4 ladles.

But in the end there were three as I found a very small hole in one of the bowls after I finished polishing them. I gave it away to one of the people doing some work on our bathroom - can't have a leaky ladle!!! Below is how the three remaining ladles turned out.

I think that these three will give some choice.
