We have a collection of beautiful antique coconut wood spoons set on a stand from Sumatra. All unique and finely hand carved. These can also be used off the stand for serving rice. The price reflects one. Circa 1900.
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 is a beauty of things modest and humble. 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.
