About the Item

We have a collection of beautiful, antique coconut wood spoons set on a stand. All unique, all finely hand carved. From Sumatra. The price reflects one. These antique rice spoons were sourced in the spirit of wabi-sabi, a Japanese philosophy that beauty can be found in imperfection and impermanence. It’s a beauty of things modest and humble. It’s a beauty of things unconventional. It is the opposite of vulgarity. The costs of achieving this kind of minimalism are seemingly inconsistent with its mission of aesthetic humility. This kind of luxury is for a select few: The Emperor of Japan had a wabi garden. Wabi is for people who already have a lot. Andrianna Shamaris. The leader in modern organic design.
