Wood Chopstick Rests

Makoto Koizumi for Asahineko

• Introduction

  I am Wood Chopstick Rests. Think of me as a customized sleeping surface for your cutlery. Set your chopsticks on my joints so you can rest yours.

   

• Curator's Notes 

   

  A stunning example of traditional Japanese joinery techniques! A combination of coniferous trees from Japan is used to craft this set of chopstick or cutlery rests. Two shapes in contrasting wood join intricately together to form each block. The combination of wood in puzzle-like patterns makes for a playful addition for the dining room table setting! Includes a set of five.
