Description
The Polar Bear Chopstick Rest captures the timeless white beauty of Arita ware in a playful and functional form. Crafted with care by skilled artisans, each piece reflects subtle variations in shape and finish, giving it a truly one-of-a-kind character. The soft matte glaze enhances the gentle appearance of the porcelain, creating a lifelike yet whimsical presence that feels both modern and traditional.
Thoughtfully designed, the polar bear lies with its belly slightly raised above the table, while its uplifted head cradles chopsticks securely in the crook of its neck. This clever detail keeps utensils neatly in place, protecting the tabletop while adding personality and charm to the setting. Beyond its function, it brings a sense of joy to mealtime and sparks conversation among guests. Perfect for everyday dining or special occasions, the Polar Bear Chopstick Rest also makes a delightful gift for those who appreciate Japanese tableware with character and heart.

Arita Ware
Arita ware, Japan’s first porcelain, originated in the early 17th century in the town of Arita, Saga Prefecture. Using pure porcelain stone sourced from the mountains of Amakusa, artisans created brilliantly white ceramics that quickly became celebrated for their beauty and strength. During the Edo period, Arita grew into a major center of porcelain production, with its works exported to Europe through the port of Imari, where they captivated collectors and royal courts alike. Today, Arita ware continues to embody the harmony of artistry and function, bringing timeless elegance to modern dining around the world.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.Shipping & Return
