Only a little on the spoon.
The aroma that travels from your mouth to your nose when you take food into your mouth is called "retronasal."
It is said that the less food you put in your mouth, the more delicately you can perceive this aroma.
The Mere soup spoon is designed to be very shallow. The amount you can take into your mouth at once is just a little.
The spoon is also designed wide so that you can enjoy the aroma that rises when you bring it to your lips.
This spoon was first prototyped several years ago.
The shape of the spoon was redesigned to enjoy the aroma.
Artist Profile
Hiro Kashihara
Creating small supporting pieces that make the table cute and delicious.
The reason I started making cutlery was my wife, who loves cooking, collecting wonderful tableware and cutlery. I started making them because I wanted to make her happy and have a wonderful tea time.
I began production in earnest in 2020, and under the concept of "cutlery that grows with you," I established a style using materials that can be enjoyed as they age, such as brass and nickel silver.
Today, I view cutlery as a canvas and create new works by incorporating simple designs of scenes and things I find beautiful.
Each piece is handmade by the artist.
There may be differences in texture, color, shape, and size between the photos and the piece you receive. Please enjoy each of these differences as their own unique characteristics.
