SAKURA FLOWER WOODEN SCOOP

The gourd-shaped teaspoon is one of the most popular cherry bark crafted items. Since ancient times in Japan, the gourd has been considered a very good omen and has been widely used as a lucky charm to ward off disasters and protect against evil.

The flower petal pattern on this tea scoop is also handcrafted by artisans. A cherry blossom-shaped die is used to cut out the wood and pasted together.

A hand-crafted cherry bark tea scoop made with "Kabazaiku", traditional woodcraft arts, from the DENSHIRO brand which has almost 200 years of expertise in crafting authentic cherry bark ware. Made in the most popular form of "Sakurazaiku", it is a traditional craft product specially produced in Kakudate Town, Akita Prefecture of Japan.
