How I use mine.
Each spike, carved by hand.
A functional piece that earns its place in the kitchen. Use it to grate fresh ginger for tea, garlic with olive oil, or ginger with soy sauce — the dish is deep enough to mix and serve straight from. The spikes are hand-carved, so they're gentler than a metal grater and easy to rinse clean. Available with or without a cat.
Approximately 10–11cm diameter, 2–3cm height.
You'll notice some variation in the blue speckles — a little more concentrated on some pieces, softer or darker on others compared to the photo.
Ceramic graters are commonly found in Japanese kitchens, but I couldn't find one when I moved to London a few decades ago. So I started making them for myself, then for friends, and eventually these became the first item I started to sell. I've met many customers who come back for a gift for their foodie friends and family.
Recommend handwashing, though occasional dishwasher use is fine.
