Rice Scoop
Dacco Myanmar
In Asian homes, rice is the center of almost every meal, and the tools we used to serve it hold a meaningful importance.
Hand-carved by master woodworkers in Bago, this rice scooper features a broad, gently curved paddle that glides through warm rice without crushing the grains.
The locally sourced wood’s natural warmth keeps rice from sticking as easily as it does to plastic or metal, while the thick handle gives you a comfortable, grounded grip.
It’s a nostalgic, everyday piece that brings a touch of traditional kitchen warmth to your family table.
