Collected spoons have a way of ending up in a drawer, which rather defeats the point of collecting them. This case puts as many as thirty of them on a wall where they can be seen. A tempered glass door keeps dust off without hiding anything behind it, and a vintage style latch holds the door shut.
The frame is wood in a brown finish, and the grain and texture are left visible rather than buried under a heavy coating. It reads as a piece of furniture instead of a plastic organizer, which matters when the thing is hanging at eye level in a kitchen or a dining room.
Dimensions are 13.4 inches wide, 2.6 inches deep, and 15.7 inches high. That shallow depth is the useful part. The case sits close to the wall and does not crowd a hallway or a narrow stretch of kitchen. The whole unit weighs 1.78 pounds, so hanging it is a one person job on a weekday evening.
Two sturdy metal brackets come included for mounting, and no assembly is required. Take it out of the box, set the brackets, hang it, and load it. There is nothing to build and no bag of hardware to sort through on the floor.
One detail worth knowing before you order. Accessories for displaying the spoons are not included, so factor that in if your collection needs anything beyond what the case itself provides.
It suits a kitchen, a dining room, or a dedicated collector's space equally well, and it works for souvenir spoons and tea spoons alike.
