The Japanese cherry blossom, or “Sakura,” is an image of transient beauty that inspires awe across the world. For a fleeting but momentous occasion, Japanese cherry blossoms can be seen throughout the parks and streets of Japan before falling in a cascading snowfall to blanket the earth in tones of pink, white, and red. This beautiful ceramic chopstick rest shows an image of a Japanese cherry blossom flower still attached to its branch, waiting patiently to flutter down to earth. The flower is coated in a fine and smooth glaze that feels delicate to the touch, while its branch is unglazed with a sandy feeling reminiscent of the bark of an auspicious cherry tree. Pairing excellently with any cherry blossom set of Japanese dinner plates, this piece would also pair well with any of our ceramic chopstick rests to make a meaningful or playful dinnerware set. You should also pick up a fine set of handmade chopsticks while you’re at it! Chopstick rests make unique gifts for friends and family as holiday stocking stuffers or as unique surprise gifts for party favors and events.

Made in Japan from the highest quality ceramics and partially protected by glaze, this delicate chopstick rest should be hand washed to preserve its beautiful tones.
