Octopus Spoon Rest

A dished ceramic spoon rest with a coral octopus spread across a sage ground, arms curling out to the rim. The rim is raised the whole way round, so whatever runs off the spoon stays in the dish rather than on the hob.

Wide enough for a ladle, not just a teaspoon — which is the usual complaint with spoon rests.
