This clean white chopstick rest is made by Syuzando from Kutani ware. The patterns, drawn in pure white on the pale gray base of Kutani ceramics, create delicate contrasts of light and shadow, imparting an elegant and refined impression.
The "Shippou" pattern features parallel circles of the same size overlaid one quarter on top of the other, forming a continuous combination of diamond-like and petal-like shapes. It symbolizes peace, happiness, and prosperity of offspring in an endless chain of circles.
With its smooth surface, ceramic chopstick rests are ideal for daily use. The large curve angle of this chopstick rest ensures that any type of chopsticks is less likely to slip off. Not only are they easy to keep clean, but they also coordinate well with various types of tableware.

About kutani ware
Kutani ware is a type of pottery produced in the Kaga region of Ishikawa Prefecture and it has a history of over 350 years.
It is characterized by the heavy brilliance of the five colors of green, yellow, red, purple, and navy blue that are applied to the bold and daring lines.
Its long history has evolved through the tireless efforts and enthusiasm of people who have sought innovation while maintaining tradition.
In the early 1700s, the Kutani kilns were closed, but about 80 years later they were opened and Kutani ware was revived.
The beauty of the various styles and methods of painting is known as "Japan Kutani" and is highly regarded around the world.
