Gold Hemp Leaf Japanese Chopstick Rest

Orignally in Japanese it is called Asanoha Kincha Maru Bokoboko Chopstick Rest. Inspired by the timeless Asanoha or hemp leaf pattern, a symbol of growth and health in Japanese culture, this chopstick rest is beautifully rendered in a lustrous gold tea colour.

"Asanoha" refers to the hemp leaf pattern, "Kincha" refers to gold tea colour, "Maru Bokoboko" refers to the round dimpled design.

What is Japanese lacquerware?

Lacquerware, or "urushi" in Japan, is a treasured art form created from the sap of the urushi tree. It stands out for its beauty and practicality, offering a waterproof and acid-resistant finish after an intricate layering and curing process.

Traditional Japanese artisans have ensured over generations that these pieces are not only functional but also meet the highest health standards and are food-safe.

What is Touga?

This nomenclature is a testament to the company's unwavering commitment to the creation of sophisticated, top-tier tableware that seamlessly fuses the charm of traditional craftsmanship with the practicality of contemporary design.

Japanese potteries are hand made. It is normal to have imperfections such as pits, marks and uneven shapes.
