World’s Smallest Wooden Spoon From India Sets Guinness World Record. You Wont Believe How Small It Is

World records for unique inventions never fail to amaze us. Among these remarkable feats is the creation of the world’s smallest wooden spoon, credited to India’s Shashikant Prajapati, according to the official website of Guinness World Records. So, just how small is this spoon? The world’s smallest wooden spoon measures just 1.6 millimetres (0.06 inches) in length! A report by Guinness World Records sheds more light on this record-breaking piece of cutlery. To qualify for the record, “the spoon must be a to-scale replica of a standard wooden spoon, meaning it must have a clearly evident bowl and handle,” according to the website. Mr Prajapati, a micro artist, carefully carved the spoon from a single piece of wood using a craft knife and a surgical tool.

According to Guinness World Records, Mr Prajapati spent quite a lot of time practising to refine the technique, making over 10 versions of the spoon before finally creating one that was small enough to break the record while also meeting the design specifications. “It was very difficult to make a spoon which is smaller than 2 mm, but after many attempts I was successful,” he told Guinness World Records.

Someone joked, “That spoon full of love that she has for me.”

“Now Shashikant just needs to make a 1.6 mm violin,” wrote another user.
