Analytical Research on Spoon-cutting Art from Past to Present Case Study from Khansar City, Iran
AbstractIn Iran, the production of wooden works and related arts has always had a special significance for artists and craftsmen. Unfortunately, the process of producing and decorating many of these works has been overlooked for several reasons. Spoon cutting is a traditional art in Iran that has long been practiced by a large number of woodcarving artists in some cities such as Khansar and Abadeh. Currently, except for a few artists, not many people are engaged in this profession. Khansar is one of the most prestigious cities in Iran in the field of spoon-cutting art, where many workshops have been engaged in producing these works in the past. In the field of traditional spoons produced in Khansar City, no scientific and purposeful research has been conducted so far, and it is necessary to pay more attention to this traditional and almost forgotten art. Accordingly, the main purpose of this study was to describe and analyze Khansar spoon-cutting art. The research method was descriptive-analytical, and the method of gathering data was a mix of field studies, interviews with local people, museums and library studies. According to the results, compared with other spoon-cutting centers, the distinctive feature of Khansar artifacts is the production of simple single-or decorative spoon-cutting works. Thus, several types of small and large spoons with different applications were produced, that are introduced in this study.
