Chopstick rest Hashioki, Cherry
This beautiful chopstick rest is crafted in the traditional kabazaiku technique. Kabazaiku has a tradition of over 200 years in Japan. The cherry trees whose bark and wood are used are wild mountain cherry trees. The cherry is relatively undemanding as far as soil is concerned and thrives even at high altitudes. The Japanese cherry is mainly known from the Japanese cherry blossom festival Hanami, which honors the cherry - a sanctuary of Japan - in its beautiful blossom. The fact that the wood of the cherry has also been highly valued in Europe and other parts of the world for thousands of years is proven, among other things, by many archaeological finds.
