The Kombu Seaweed Onigiri Chopstick Rest brings a smile to the table with its playful take on one of Japan’s most familiar comfort foods. Shaped like a small triangular rice ball with a kombu filling, it captures the charm of an everyday snack in delightful miniature form.

Beyond its humor, it is also practical, giving your chopsticks a clean resting place between bites. The surface has a gentle texture that hints at rice grains, while the dark accent at the center recalls a savory piece of seaweed. Place it on its own or mix and match with other food-themed rests to create a lighthearted table setting that sparks conversation.

More than a simple utensil holder, this piece adds warmth and personality to your dining, reminding us that meals are not only about flavor but also about joy and connection.

Mino Ware

Mino ware is a traditional pottery from Gifu Prefecture with a history of more than 1,300 years. Its origins trace back to the Nara period, when early potters began producing simple earthenware. During the Momoyama period (late 16th century), Mino became Japan’s leading center for ceramics, giving rise to distinctive styles such as Shino, Oribe, and Kizeto—each deeply connected to the aesthetics of the Japanese tea ceremony. Today, as Japan’s largest pottery-producing region, Mino continues to evolve with contemporary life, blending timeless craftsmanship with modern design to support the way people eat and live every day.

Chopstick Rest

When setting the table for a Japanese meal, chopstick rests (hashioki) are a must-have item. These rests are essential for hygiene so the chopsticks don’t touch the table. They are also a wonderful way to add whimsy, charm, and a personal touch to your table setting. With so many themes and designs to choose, chopstick rests are quite popular to collect. It's fun to switch them up for different seasons, menus, and occasions.
