United StatesIhoshiro Kiln Cast Iron Teapot Mino Ware Chopstick Rest
The quality of the chopstick rests was disappointing. In the pictures you can clearly see the dots on the teapots. They are raised to emulate the look of authentic cast iron teapots with design. In reality the ones I received were flat, even to the touch. Very disappointing.
United StatesGreat detail, amazing quality!
This chopsticks rest is so pretty and cute! The craftsmanship is amazing, and the tiny tea pot is of the greatest quality- looks just like my large cast iron Japanese tea pot! My order arrived in two days in the US all the way from Japan, and was beautifully wrapped in a blue and white furoshiki (pictured on the photo). Thank you, Musubi Kiln, for bringing so much beauty in my life!
