Provincial Scoop

Hand-carved in northern China, this provincial scoop was once used to measure and dispense rice and grains. After over a century of use, the wood has developed a burnished finish that calls to be touched. With the graphic impact of a cornucopia, the scoop represents bounty and prosperity and makes for a wonderful addition to the home. We like to use a scoop as a table display for candies or nuts or as a decorative sculpture, mounted alongside others on a kitchen wall.
