Chopstick rest made of high purity tin. Some of the crafts that have been passed down in Okinawa since ancient times have patterns that are said to bring good luck. The ``tassel ring'' used at weddings has motifs of fish, pomegranates, leaves (basho leaves), butterflies, fans, peaches, and flowers, and the chopstick rests are based on these motifs. Each piece has an auspicious meaning and is a 7-piece set. Recommended not only as a gift for celebrations, but also for your home.

Goldwork (Kanseeku) Matsu is produced by Mr. Toshinobu Uehara, who honed his skills as a craftsman at the traditional craft Takaoka copperware production site in Ginowan City, Okinawa Prefecture. He established his studio in 2015, strongly moved by the current situation of Ryukyu tin ware that was fading, forgotten tin crafts (shirkanizek), and the pot craftsmen who supported post-war Okinawan culture. We value the close connection between "people, things, and places," which are important elements of manufacturing that we have discovered over the course of our continuous creation.
