This item was purchased in Italy over 20 years ago after falling in love with it at first sight. The design is not often seen in Japan, and unlike the many shell-like designs, this beautiful design reminiscent of lapis lazuli is, I believe, quite rare. I recall using the two large spoons once. As it doesn't match the atmosphere of my tableware, I haven't used it and have kept it stored away. I am selling this item because I primarily use a Laguiole bee-marked set, so this one has no opportunity to be used. The box has deteriorated. I made a mistake opening one and tore the bag. Thank you for your understanding. Please note that this is a long-term storage item and not new, so please refrain from returns and claims.
