A Japanese tea scoop made from kurinoki (chestnut wood) for Marumitsu Poterie. Crafted in a simple drop shape, it's perfect for scooping loose tea leaves, or as a small dessert spoon.

Available in a petite small size and a large size, each scoop carries Marumitsu Poterie's signature [m’] mark branded on the back. Chestnut wood is highly durable and water-resistant, with a long history of use in Japan, where it was traditionally used for house foundations and railroads, and its clear grain gives a warm, rustic feel.

More from the Kurinoki range: the Chestnut Soup Spoon and Chestnut Butter Knife.
