Square Chopstick Rest with Pagoda, 5.5x5.5 cm

Decorate your home with historical Japan!

• Porcelain chopstick rest adorned with reproductions of my pen drawings of a pagoda with a golden sun
• Pagodas are multi-story towers, built of wood, that arrived in Japan in the 6th century along with Buddhism.
• A pagoda often has five stories, each symbolizing one of the five Buddhist elements (earth, water, fire, wind, and sky).
• Pagodas are part of temple complexes, and prayer areas for ceremonies are located around them.
  

   

About the porcelain:

• The dimensions of the chopstick rest are 5.5 x 5.5 cm.
• The chopstick rest is from a Czech porcelain factory in Dubí near Teplice.
• The chopstick rest is hand-decorated with porcelain decals, fired in a ceramic kiln at 820 °C.
  
• You can safely wash porcelain in the dishwasher. The decorations on the chopstick rest are very durable.
• Microwave oven use is also a matter of course.

About porcelain decals:

• Porcelain decals are reproductions of my original pen drawings.
• Decals are applied to porcelain by hand, so the position of the images may vary slightly from the photo.
• Decals are produced by a specialized Czech company; they are high-quality and durable.

About the collection Architecture of Ancient Japan:

• The collection is inspired by significant structures of historical Japan: the pagoda, torii gate, and castle.
• In this collection, you will find porcelain, textiles, and paper trinkets.
• I would be happy to place this motif on another mug or anything else for you.
