Description
I am a Short Turner. I’ll be the little jewel of all your kitchen tools.
Curator’s Notes
This striking piece is an exclusive collaboration between Nalata Nalata and metal artisan Mitsuhiro Konishi. We’ve been long-time admirers of Konishi-san’s craftsmanship and artistry, and it was an honor to work with him to create a spatula that feels more like a rare tool from another world than an everyday kitchen utensil. The golden handle of brass gently tapers to an angle, where it meets with richly textured, hand-hammered steel. The head of the spatula has a series of perforations in striking formation, a modern detail that contrasts nicely with the rustic patina of the steel. But aesthetics aside, the spatula is incredibly well-made. Both functional and beautiful, it’s a tool to be used and admired in equal parts. This spatula also comes in a longer version, available here.
