Hands-on woodworking class to create your own spoon using local raw wood.
Make your own wooden spoon at Kubota Furniture Studio, a leading wood furniture manufacturing business in Yoro Town, with a woodworking experience using local raw wood. Raw wood is wood that has just been harvested and is full of moisture, making it softer and wetter than wood that is generally processed as furniture. Why not join Yoshihiro Kubota, an instructor at Kubota Furniture Studio, and experience the fascination of raw wood while making your own original wooden spoon? The process of shaving raw wood with a tool is a steady and simple repetition of work, but the gradual shaping of the spoon is a process that you can immerse yourself in without thinking.
