The photo shows a spatula designed by Rosendahl, a name in fancy Danish homeware. It costs €20 euros. The little marks on the handles are inspired by the use of rice in Japanese cooking. The black part is vulcanised rubber and it is too rigid to scrape goop from inside mixing bowls. The metal part has sharp edges where it meets the rubber and the surface of the metal part is uneven. The lower spatula costs €4 and works very well indeed. Nobody knows who designed it. The Rosendahl spatula is another nice example of how lost Danish design is today: driven by the cynical wish to part customers from their money in the name of bogus good taste.
