Olive Wood Salt Mill - $29.00 [ Link ]
If you love collecting sea salts, a mill is an absolute must. I like that this one is made out of olive wood. It reminds me of the Mediterranean where so many amazing salts are from.

Tongs - $4.00 [ Link ]
Tongs are probably my most-used kitchen accessory. I have several pairs to make sure I always have one on hand when I need it. As a change from the regular stainless style, I love these bamboo tongs. They remind me of chopsticks.

Saal Wood Large Candleholder - $29.95 [ Link ]
A beautiful dining table simply must feature candles. These pillar candleholders are sure to make a statement, and you can brag that they're sustainable too. They're made of recycled saal wood reclaimed from old Indian railroad ties.

Olivewood Salt & Pepper Shakers - $36.00 [ Link ]
I feel like these river rock salt and pepper shakers would make for the perfect hostess gift. They're as beautiful as they are useful.

Dipped halfway in white paint, these teak spreaders are the perfect complement to a cheese and pâté plate.

'Lotus' Tea Waitress - EUR 6.90 [ Link ]
I find that beautiful serving spoons make all the difference in a kitchen. This spoon is great for measuring tea or salt, and the wood used to carve the spoon has never been treated with chemicals.

Make these your special-occasion cutlery. Made of teak, the soft, round handles are oiled for a contemporary, minimalist look.

Teak Honey Jar - $38.00 [ Link ]
I've always found that honey jars have something romantic about them. Wouldn't transferring store-bought honey to your own heirloom jar give you the impression that you're in absolute control of your life? If I were ever to do this, I'd use this super cute jar. I just love that rope handle.

Banded Wood Coasters - $96.00 [ Link ]
I have a soft spot for things made out of salvaged wood. I feel like it gives objects a deeper meaning. These walnut coasters will beautify any coffee table and get even better looking with age.

Breadbasket - EUR 34.00 [ Link ]
My mom has several breadbaskets, but I feel like they're a bit of an old-fashioned habit. But when I saw this one, I thought I'd gladly use it instead of just throwing bread in an ordinary ceramic bowl. It can double as a small serving tray too.

Salad Bowls, New Style - $22.00 [ Link ]
Wooden salad bowls are quintessential in any kitchen, classic or modern. My mom has had hers for over 25 years, and they look just like these! These bamboo bowls are beautiful, and contrary to what you might think, they don't absorb odors and are very easy to clean.

Mango Wood Bowl - $35.00 [ Link ]
These striking bowls are carved by hand from mango wood, making each one completely unique. I love the live edge of tree bark around the rim that adds to its rustic beauty.

Boos Cherrywood End-Grain Cutting Block - $129.95 [ Link ]
Every cook needs a quality butcher block. Invest in one and it'll last you a lifetime. This 3-inch thick one, made in the USA from sustainably harvested solid cherrywood, makes a beautiful and enduring addition to the kitchen.
by Williams-Sonoma
Acacia Dish Rack - $49.95 [ Link ]
This is another classic. No need to dry the dishes when you have such a handy and beautiful dish rack sitting by the sink at all times. I love the darker shade of acacia wood that makes this a grown-up version of the classic $5 rack that that everyone seems to have owned at some point in their young-adult life.
by Crate&Barrel
Wood Trencher Plate Set - $44.00 [ Link ]
If I were a caterer, I'd stock up on these to serve appetizers in a very special and unique way. The plates are made from reclaimed oak and finished in olive oil, and their design is ideal for serving canapés. Flip them and they become small cutting boards.
by West Elm
Raw Wood Placemat - $24.00 [ Link ]
Use these wooden placemats to warm up any table. They're absolutely striking used over a linen tablecloth. Have them monogrammed for an extra-special gift idea.
by West Elm
Teardrop Serving Boards - $80.00 [ Link ]
I love the shapes and contrasting colors of this set of chopping boards. Each board is hand shaped, sanded and treated with a blend of beeswax and food-safe mineral oil. They're great for serving cheese, canapés or mignardises.
by UncommonGoods
Coasters - EUR 52.20 [ Link ]
These coasters (can you believe they're coasters?) are elegant enough to be hung on the wall. They're the perfect gift for that person on your list that seems to have it all.

Wood Lemon Reamer - $9.95 [ Link ]
Almost everyone that sees me using a lemon reamer asks me, "Is that really useful?" I tell you, being the citrus lover that I am, I cannot live without one. They make juicing quick, keep your hands mostly dry and, most importantly, allow you to extract every last bit of juice from each citrus half. Rinse it under running water after each use, and it'll keep for years and years.
by Williams-Sonoma
Wooden Wine Rack [ Link ]
Show off your best wine bottles up, down or across! These interlocking acacia wine racks are also easily stackable, so you can collect them as your wine collection expands.

@pejic It's hard to judge the scale in your photo, but from the wear marks on the inside it could be some sort of specialized mortar. The rings would be created as the pestle went around the spindle to grind spices, corn, etc.
I have bought gorgeous burl and live edge bowls from a Canadian company called Stinson studios in Ontario. I have a salad bowl from the the Nanaimo ferry dock from Bob's wife and if you ever are in Nova Scotia there is a company called Larchwood enterprises that makes terrific cutting, cheese and buffet boards. We acquired a great board on our trip there that is as tough as nails.
