Description from the seller

This lot consists of a charming set of five ceramic chopstick rests (箸置き, Hashioki) in the shape of fish, presented in their original storage box labeled 「和味之器」 (Wami no Utsuwa).

Each piece features a finely crafted fish form with a smooth green gradient glaze transitioning into a white underside, giving a natural and elegant appearance reminiscent of traditional Japanese tableware aesthetics. The subtle detailing of scales and fins enhances their decorative appeal while remaining functional.

These chopstick rests are ideal for everyday dining or as a refined addition to a Japanese table setting. They also make an attractive collectible for enthusiasts of Japanese ceramics and traditional dining culture.

The set appears unused, though the outer box shows some signs of age due to long-term storage.
