This is a coaster with an "Awaji" knot mizuhiki by the Tsuda Mizuhiki brand, "knot". The mizuhiki thread mixed with gold and silver threads brings a brilliant look to the dining table.

Awaji knot is the most common knot used in mizuhiki and is also known as an abalone knot. The left and right loops are tied together, and when you hold both ends and pull, the knot becomes even stronger, meaning that you want to have a long-lasting relationship with the recipient.
