I was counting on getting a beautiful handmade teak spoon. What I got could not have been picked from an uglier piece of wood. The bowl of the spoon is made from a tree that had a huge, ugly knot that takes up most of the bowl. I can't return it, as I have already conditioned the wood in the hopes the knot would improve. Instead it just got worse. I'll just use it until I can find a wood spoon I finally like, which has proven to be difficult. I'm just terribly disappointed right now.Edit: I was promptly contacted by NOVICA about my negative review. I was offered either a refund or replacement. Assuming since I conditioned the spoons and they couldn't be returned, I gave the old ones to my mother and ordered new ones. I chose to just wait for the new spoons to see how they looked. I was delighted, of course. I couldn't be happier with the new set. I just wish I could leave pictures, because words couldn't possibly do it justice. The old, hideous spoon must have just been a glitch.
