These vegetable themed chopstick (or cutlery) rests were made for Oita based bamboo house Chicken.
Unusually for the family firm, they are not in bamboo but rather in box wood (tsuge).
They are solid, individually crafted and expressive little lotus roots, aubergines, kabu radishes and more, on the table.
They are around 6cm x 2.5cm, and 1cm high. They weigh around 15g.
