Mino ware Onigiri Rice Bowl Chopstick Rest / おにぎり箸置き
New Arriveals
Inspired by the humble onigiri (Japanese rice ball), this ceramic chopstick rest brings a playful yet understated touch to the table. Crafted in the Mino ware region, it reflects the area’s long-standing tradition of creating everyday ceramics that balance function with quiet charm.
The softly rounded triangular form is finished in a warm off-white glaze, with a contrasting dark accent that recalls the seaweed wrapping of a classic onigiri. Small raised details add subtle texture, while the smooth surface is designed to comfortably support chopsticks between bites.
Thoughtfully sized and easy to pair with a wide range of tableware, this piece is ideal for daily meals as well as casual gatherings. Its familiar motif evokes comfort and simplicity—core elements of Japanese food culture.
Each piece is handmade, and subtle variations in colour, glaze, and shape are a natural part of the process.
