About the Item

This is a wooden shovel that was used in old farmers in Japan. It is made of chestnut wood and hand-carved. It seems that the user at that time made a hole in order to drain the water. It seems that it was used as a farming tool in the Tohoku region. It turns gray due to the change over time, and it has an artistic expression. By decorating the space as an object, you can add primitive elements. Weight: 0.5kg
