Ihoshiro Kiln Chopstick Rest

Mino ware is a traditional Japanese pottery style originating from the Gifu Prefecture, renowned for its durability and high-quality ceramic craftsmanship. Choosing a piece made in this tradition ensures you are getting a functional, long-lasting item that reflects authentic artisanal techniques.

While the ceramic material is durable, we recommend hand washing your chopstick rest. Hand washing helps preserve the delicate details of the vegetable motif and prevents potential chipping that can occur in a dishwasher.

By design, this rest elevates your chopsticks off the table surface. This prevents your utensils from coming into contact with the tabletop, keeping them clean and sanitary throughout your meal.

This item is sold as a single piece. If you are looking to outfit a full dining set, you will need to purchase the desired quantity separately.

Yes, the shape is designed to accommodate most standard chopstick styles, including wood, bamboo, and metal. The groove provides a stable cradle regardless of the material or weight of your utensils.
