Thank you for viewing! This is a wooden soba kneading bowl. I received it from my aunt, who said she hardly used it! According to her, it was a gift from an acquaintance in Nagano and was a high-quality item. Indeed, it has a good weight and feels solid. I suspect it's handmade. Why not try using it if you want to make soba? It will be shipped in the box as shown in the photos! - Material: Wood - Shape: Round - Size: Hand-held size - Bottom: Flat Thank you for viewing. We look forward to your purchase! We also welcome your questions!
