Found in a small shop on Yanaka Ginza, one of Tokyo’s last surviving old-town shopping streets, these wooden chopstick rests are carved in the shape of a leaf, with veins etched into the surface by hand.

They are not precious objects. They are the kind of thing that makes a table feel considered. Set one down before a meal, rest your chopsticks across it, notice how it looks. That is enough.
Works as a chopstick rest, a small ring dish, a decorative table accent, or a gift for someone who appreciates the details.

Material: Carved and stained wood
Origin: Yanaka Ginza, Tokyo, Japan

Each piece is slightly different in tone and shape.
