This chopsticks rest is stunning! The craftsmanship is amazing, and the ginkgo leave looks so real. 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!
