Description
The Sleeping Cat Chopstick Rest captures a moment of gentle contentment. Shaped as a softly rounded cat with folded paws and a small smile, it brings a calm presence to the table. A glossy porcelain body reflects the clean look of Hasami ware, while fine painted lines in warm brown pick out the whiskers, ears, and tail. The surface feels smooth and cool to the touch, and the slightly raised form keeps utensils stable. This charming accent blends easily with both modern settings and classic Japanese tableware.
Designed for everyday meals, it keeps chopsticks clean between bites and also holds a teaspoon or tasting fork. Place it beside rice and soup for a relaxed breakfast, or pair it with sweets for afternoon tea. The friendly cat suggests a wish for comfort and good cheer, making it a thoughtful gift for cat lovers and a playful companion at family gatherings. A small piece with big warmth, it brings a quiet smile to daily dining.

Hasami Ware
Hasami ware, a traditional porcelain from Nagasaki Prefecture, has been crafted for over 400 years in the town of Hasami\just about 10 kilometers from Arita, the birthplace of Japanfs porcelain. While Arita ware flourished as an art form known for its elaborate decorations and luxury appeal, Hasami developed as a center for everyday tableware, valued for its practicality and refined simplicity. During the Edo period, Hasami became one of Japanfs main producers of daily-use porcelain, supplying durable and beautifully made pieces to households across the country. That spirit continues today, as Hasami artisans blend traditional craftsmanship with modern design, creating timeless and often playfully charming tableware that fits perfectly into contemporary life.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
