Jaipur artist sets Guinness record for making world’s smallest wooden spoon

A man from Jaipur has made the world’s smallest wooden spoon and has “carved” a record for himself. Navratan Prajapati made it to the Guinness World Records (GWR) for creating a spoon merely 2mm in height and 0.7 inches long.

In the video, Prajapati can be seen making the world’s smallest spoon with expertise. The process is quite interesting and he even kept the cutlery item on a grain of rice to depict its tiny size. “Guinness World Records is the Kohinoor diamond in records and after receiving it I feel like wearing the most magnificent crown on my head,” the artist said while talking to Guinness World Records.

Navratan also wants to develop a miniature craft museum in the future.

“New record: Smallest wooden spoon – 2 mm (0.7 inches) made by Navratan Prajapati Murtikar (India),” reads the caption of the post.
