Lidded Salt Cellars

At the most recent farmer's market I had two women ask me about salt cellars. One wants a small box with a lid and a spoon for her Himalayan salt. This is a small box I made years ago with a crystal handle. I thought this would be a good size for a salt cellar. I may have to resurrect some of these boxes with attached gemstone handles. Do you know a source for small wooden spoons?

Update:  I see Etsy has lots of sources for small wooden tasting spoons; I'll be checking them out.

I like the way the lid curves around the box; all one piece. For the life of me I can't remember how I glazed the lid. Any clues? I must have made a prop for the lid to set upon when it was fired. The prop must have been pretty exacting since I had that patch of glaze on the underside center too. Hum. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.
