Inspired by The Great Wave off Kanagawa, one of Japan's most iconic ukiyo-e prints, this elegant chopstick rest brings a timeless symbol of Japanese art to your dining table.

Originally created by Katsushika Hokusai as part of his renowned Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji series, the dramatic wave has become one of the world's most recognisable Japanese artworks.

Encased within clear acrylic resin, the striking wave motif appears to float beneath the surface, creating a beautiful blend of traditional inspiration and modern design. Lightweight, durable, and easy to clean, it's perfect for everyday dining or adding a refined finishing touch to special occasions.

What’s in the box?

Our products are made with love and care in Japan, but it’s with you where their story lives on. And for that to happen, we need to make sure they arrive with you in one piece! We carefully wrap each item in bubble wrap and traditional Japanese newspapers (you’ll often find a Japanese crossword or sudoku to solve!). You’ll also receive a short guide on how to care for and cherish your new tableware. Sustainability is important to us and we’re working hard on ways to keep items safe while being kind to the planet, too.
