I am a Minotake Bamboo Scoop. What’s that cooking? Smells great! Mind if I dig in?
Curator's Notes
This scoop is great for scooping rice and serving meals. 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.
