Add warmth to your everyday table with this hand-carved wild cherry wood spoon by Koji Ishii, crafted in his studio in Chiba Prefecture. The piece embodies a simple, honest design that feels comforting in the hand. Measuring 145 by 28 mm, it features gentle carving marks that highlight the calm, natural character of solid wood.
The spoon is finished with a food-safe oil that preserves the organic texture of the wild cherry wood. To keep it in good condition, avoid soaking it in water after use, wipe it dry with a cloth, and let it air-dry fully in a shaded, well-ventilated spot. Occasional oiling will nourish the wood and deepen its color over time. Store it away from direct sunlight and excessive humidity to prevent fading or cracking. Because each piece is entirely handmade, small variations in color and size give every spoon its own unique character.
Koji Ishii Spoon No. 8, crafted from solid Japanese cherry wood with an oil finish. Measures 145 × 28 mm.
Each spoon is individually handmade, so slight variations in size and color may occur. The food-safe oil finish preserves the wood’s natural texture and develops a richer character with use.
