Minotake Bamboo Square Spatula – Natural

Description

I am a Minotake Bamboo Square Spatula. There’s really nothing square about me other than my shape. I’ll bet three scoops of jam I’m one of the most interesting spatula’s you’ve ever seen!

Curator’s Notes

This Square Spatula is shaped to easily scoop hard to reach areas of a jar and for spreading condiments. Since 1898, Kohchosai has been specializing in making a variety of bamboo craft products. The Minotake line, designed by the world-renowned Makoto Koizumi, utilizes the natural properties and curvature of bamboo to create a series of cutlery items and kitchen tools. Each ergonomic bamboo piece is naturally lightweight, uniquely curved and features purposeful angles and arches.
