Our best seller, the Spurtle!

Discover the magic of the humble Spurtle: Our best selling kitchen tool.


Montville Woods Gallery has been in existence for 36 years, and for as long as records show, the humble Spurtle has been a popular choice among Montville residents and visitors alike. Our exquisite camphor laurel Spurtles are crafted by Mark Mooney, who has been creating these items for our gallery for a decade. Mark estimates that he has made approximately 2500 Spurtles since January 2014 and continues to craft them for us to this day. They are perfect for gifting!

What is a Spurtle? A Spurtle is a traditional Scottish kitchen utensil made of wood, designed for stirring porridge, soups, stews, and other dense mixtures. Its elongated cylindrical shape with a tapered end aids in preventing lumps and promoting uniform cooking. This tool enables effortless stirring without splatter and proves more efficient than a spoon for specific culinary tasks. An indispensable addition to any kitchen!



Our selection of handcrafted wooden Kitchen Utensils is designed to complement your Spurtle, offering a sustainable alternative to plastic and metal. They are not only aesthetically pleasing but also simple to maintain. Just wash them with hot water as usual and occasionally apply food-safe oil when they appear to be losing moisture. Our diverse range of wooden Kitchen Utensils is meticulously crafted by hand in Australia.
