I purchased this several years ago, and I believe it's a rare item that is no longer made. It was only sold in stores, and the limited quantities would sell out quickly upon arrival. It's a beautifully crafted piece with meticulous handwork. I haven't been able to use it because I feel it's too precious, so I'm offering it to someone who is looking for it. I've stored it carefully, so I believe it's in the same condition as when I bought it, but please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about it having been handled by someone else. The material is maple, with a gentle and beautiful wood grain. I believe it was finished with beeswax. It has an antique-like appearance, so it would look lovely paired with antique plates. The original price was also quite high, and considering shipping and handling fees, I cannot offer a discount. Total length: approximately 19cm It's a size that can be used for pasta, etc. You could use two of them as servers. ............
