The Studio North Design Utensil Holder (2002) can hold more than just utensils. This versatilely sized vessel can hold mail, pens and pencils or contain your kitchen implements, and it can be positioned vertically or on its side. Like all Studio North Design products, the Utensil Holder is crafted from an often overlooked material: forest-salvaged, old-growth Douglas fir. A straight-grained, amber-colored wood, it’s acquired through forest salvage logging, where skilled sawyers mine usable wood out of logs that have long since fallen in the forests of the Pacific Coast.
