Premium Japanese Mino Ware Chopstick Rest - Handcrafted Ceramic Oden Series by Ihoshiro Kiln - Perfect for Sushi, Ramen & Asian Dining Decor

Product Description

This chopstick rest is part of a unique series inspired by oden, a beloved hot pot dish. Oden consists of various ingredients simmered together in a flavorful dashi, enjoyed especially in the colder months.

Each chopstick rest is shaped like a classic oden ingredient:

Konnyaku – A jelly-like food made from the konjac plant, often used in traditional cooking.
Chikuwa – A tube-shaped fish paste cake.
Boiled egg – A simple yet essential addition to oden.
Daikon radish – A thick, tender slice that soaks up the broth’s rich flavor.
Kombu-musubi – Kelp tied in a knot, adding umami depth.
Mochi-kinchaku – A rice cake wrapped in deep-fried bean curd.

Chopstick rests are an essential part of table settings. Though small, they offer a way to express personality and seasonal charm, whether chosen for everyday use or special occasions.
