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.Arita Ware
Arita porcelain originates from an area known as Arita on the Island of Kyushu, Japan. It is known as the birthplace of fine Japanese porcelain, and the artisans of Arita have produced exceptional ceramic works for more than 400 years. The beautiful contrast between the porcelain and the hand-painting is obtained by using exceptionally high-quality porcelain stone, allowing the glazed surface to display a distinct glossy mirror with a rich ivory luster.Koraku Kiln
Koraku was founded in 1865, but the roots of the artisans crafting the stunning porcelain date back to the 1600s. Every piece made at Kouraku is hand-crafted using time-honored techniques; this exceptional level of dedication shines through in their products. In recent years, Kouraku Kiln has adapted its production to cater to diverse needs while still adhering to its traditional crafting methods. This flexibility reflects a deep commitment to preserving local crafts and artists' methods while modernizing their product range.We offer a flat rate of USD $25 for shipping to the U.S., and Free Shipping on orders over USD $199.
