A well-made spoon earns its place by how it feels in the hand — the balance of the bowl against the handle, the way the weight settles. This one is made in Japan with the precision that Japanese metalwork is known for: the edges finished, the surface even, nothing surplus. Kiyoshi Haraguchi works in Aichi, Japan, making each piece by hand at a pace that allows every object to receive full attention. The craft tradition behind this work is regional and long-established — a way of making that the area has sustained for generations. Japanese craft has shaped the way the world thinks about handmade objects, and a piece like this brings that tradition to your own table. The grain and the finish fall differently on every piece, so no two are alike. Yours will differ a little from the one photographed — that is the hand of the maker. Material: Japanese metalwork Made in Aichi, Japan Artisan: Kiyoshi Haraguchi Size: 10.3 cm Because each piece is individually made, slight variations in form and finish are the mark of a true handmade object.
