Bizen Renkon (Lotus Root) Chopstick Rest by Masato Miura

Celebrate the beauty of everyday ingredients with this handmade Bizen Renkon (Lotus Root) Chopstick Rest by Masato Miura. Inspired by the distinctive shape of the lotus root, the original mold was designed and crafted by the artist himself, and each piece is individually formed and wood-fired using traditional Bizen techniques. During firing, natural kiln effects emerge from each piece's placement within the kiln, creating subtle variations in color, texture, and surface. No two are exactly alike, making every chopstick rest a small work of art that brings warmth and quiet character to the table. Made in Okayama, Japan
