Light and easy to hold, this renge, or ramen spoon, is hand-carved with a tortoise shell design. Perfect for eating noodles such as udon, soba, and ramen, this Japanese soup spoon is also wonderful for other cuisine like tofu and simmered dishes.

The textured pattern is made by shaving the handle and underside for an effect that is not only beautiful but also helps prevent slipping. Coated with all-natural lacquer using traditional Yamanaka lacquerware techniques, anyone from small children to the elderly can use it safely. A convenient notch on the handle allows it to hook onto the edge of a bowl without falling into your soup.

Available in three elegant colorways—red with black accents, black with red accents, and natural wood—this ramen spoon’s timeless design is suitable for long-term use, daily use, or entertaining guests.
