This stainless steel ladle is functional as well as beautiful. Its convenient side spout allows for easy scooping and pouring of liquids. Its handle, wrapped in all-natural akebi vines, brings a touch of Japan’s nature into the kitchen.

Use this tool as a serving ladle, pouring out from the spout to serve soup into individual bowls. Or use the spout in the opposite direction, scooping broth up into the ladle to easily taste test, check for doneness, or delicately transfer small quantities of liquid. Its ability to handle a range of tasks makes this ladle a versatile tool that you’ll want to reach for again and again.

The charming vine-wrapped handle and pop of color from the synthetic leather hanging strap give this ladle an appealing design that allows it to transition from kitchen to dining table with ease.

Each vine-wrapped handle is carefully crafted—soaked in water and tightly bound by hand—resulting in a refined texture that ages beautifully over time.
