Aizome Indigo Dyed Fortune Japanese Chopstick Rest Set

This set consists of four chopstick rests, each featuring a unique design that draws inspiration from classic Japanese motifs.

The collection includes circular rests with patterns that range from the iconic Japanese wave to a stylised representation of a Maneki-neko, commonly known as the beckoning cat, a symbol of good fortune.

Another rest showcases a harmonious floral pattern, while the last piece features an abstract, ink-like splash design, reminiscent of Sumi-e painting strokes. Each rest is crafted with a smooth, flat surface, ensuring your chopsticks rest securely.

The deep indigo hue, known as Aizome, not only adds a vibrant splash of colour but also holds cultural significance, being one of the oldest dyeing techniques in Japan.

The set is neatly presented in a navy blue box with gold Japanese script, making it an ideal gift.
