Kabazaiku is a uniquely Japanese art form that used the national tree, Sakura, and turns its bark into beautiful, long lasting products. There are about five companies remaining who still master the traditional, complex art form that was passed down from generation to generation. One of these companies is TOMIOKA SHOTEN.

'Futaoki' is a term from the art of Japanese tea ceremony and describes a rest meant for the lid of the tea kettle. As it keeps the steaming hot water inside, it will often be dripping, staining your table or office. This clever rest will not only serve as a coaster for your tea kettle or tea cup, but also leaves room for the lid of the kettle, so you can open and refill it with ease.

- Design: TOMIOKA SHOTEN

- Craft: Kabazaiku Cherry Bark (Akita Prefecture)
- Material: Cherry skin, natural wood, MDF, urethane paint

- Size: about W175??D125??H18mm
