Yamacoh Co. 

Since 1972, Yamacoh Co. has sought to achieve unity between Japanese beauty and function. The Japanese word, youbi, translates to “functional beauty,” where the essential beauty of something is revealed through functional use. 

Yamacoh woodenware products are made using Japanese woods such as Hinoki and Sawara (types of Japanese Cypress). The wood is known for its delicate lines and smooth surface. In the hands of skilled craftspeople, beauty and function come together. 

Hinoki Cypress Rice Paddle  

These beautifully carved rice paddles are made from high quality Japanese Hinoki Cypress Wood. The extra-large size is ideal for mixing/ serving rice out of a large handai (sushi bowl), and the large size is good for medium-to large handai or 5 rice-cup size Kamado-san rice cooker as well. Mini size is perfect for making sushi rolls; essential to have a few for a temaki (hand-roll) party!
