This handcrafted oblong spoon paddle is made from Iroko, a durable African hardwood often compared to teak for its natural stability and resistance to wear. Iroko’s warm golden-brown tones, interlocked grain, and subtle dark streaking give the piece an elegant, understated aesthetic. Despite being lighter than many hardwoods, Iroko maintains excellent strength and rigidity, resulting in a crisp, sting-forward impact profile.
The spoon-shaped head adds focus and intensity, concentrating sensation while still offering enough surface area for controlled strikes. The paddle’s smooth contours and refined finish make it comfortable in hand, while its long profile provides reach and precision. Individually shaped without CNC machinery, each Iroko piece displays its own natural grain pattern and character.
