A monkey bottle opener! Say no more. This cast iron opener was designed by leading Japanese designer Tadahiro Baba, who has helped revive Nambu ironware from Morioka City. Simple and beautiful, it opens bottlecaps with the monkey's crown and arms. Handcrafted by Sumitani Saburo Shoten, a family-run foundry established in 1939 in Takaoka, Toyama Prefecture. Led by third-generation craftsman Masataka Sumitani, the foundry produces exceptional metalwork rooted in a 400-year tradition of smelting. They create timeless, minimalist pieces that honor Japanese craftsmanship and elevate everyday objects.
