These are ladles made from “Smoked Mōsō bamboo”.
There are two types of ladles, one with no hole and the other with hole, and two sizes, small and large.

Smoked Mōsō bamboo is thick Mōsō bamboo that has first been smoked in a charcoal kiln.
No one else in Japan makes cutlery with this kind of coloring,
it has a unique, rich texture, and once seen, leaves an unforgettable impression on us.

We feel it is a miracle that both “what can only be done with bamboo”
and “tools that have never been seen before” have been realized.

What a tasteful Smoked Mōsō bamboo color.

It is gentle to the touch, does not damage pots and dishes,
and makes a soft sound when it hits the pot.
It will be a reliable partner that makes your daily cooking more enjoyable.

Please select the type and size you prefer.

<Smoked Mōsō Bamboo cutlery by Kazuho Shimomoto>

Originally, he built his own charcoal kiln and used oak as main materials for charcoal making.

He started making smoked bamboo cutlery in earnest when he hung bamboo cutlery
he had carved himself from the large amount of smoke emitted during the charcoal-making process.

The cutlery made by Mr. Shimomoto is characterized by its unique color,
which gives it a rich texture, and by its shape, which is only possible with bamboo.
The cutlery has a sharp design, but when you touch it, it feels comfortable in your hand and makes you smile with its usability.
