I am a Long Turner. My hobbies include turning and flipping. Some of my favorite foods are pancakes, burgers, and potato fritters. I enjoy holding hands, deep conversations, and relaxing close to the stovetop.
This striking piece is an exclusive collaboration between Nalata Nalata and metal artisan Mitsuhiro Konishi. We’ve been long-time admirers of Konishi-san’s craftsmanship and artistry, and it was an honor to work with him to create a spatula that feels more like a rare tool from another world than an everyday kitchen utensil. The golden handle of brass gently tapers to an angle, where it meets with richly textured, hand-hammered steel. The head of the spatula has a series of perforations in striking formation, a modern detail that contrasts nicely with the rustic patina of the steel. But aesthetics aside, the spatula is incredibly well-made. Both functional and beautiful, it’s a tool to be used and admired in equal parts. This spatula also comes in a shorter version, available here.
