I’m Happy To Have Found These Chopstick Rests

These were a gift to my 103-year-old mother, who has been looking for pea pod chopstick rests to replace her old broken ones—now over 60 years old—for years. I have looked all over Japan during my visits and never found any like the ones I grew up using in Tokyo, so I was delighted to find them at Musubi Kiln. Though I haven’t seen them yet, my sister reports that they are adorable.
