Chopstick rest, knot, pack of 5

A tin chopstick rest that lavishly decorates your table. This tin chopstick rest is based on the motif of Mizuhiki knots. Each chopstick rest has auspicious patterns and is recommended as a gift or souvenir. Tin has antibacterial properties, so it can be used safely as tableware. In addition, since it is 100% tin, it is soft and can be used in different shapes. This set includes chopstick rests with five different patterns. *From the top, Daki Awaji Musubi, Katachō Musubi, Awaji Musubi, Aioi Musubi, Kanō Musubi [Daki Awaji Musubi] This is an advanced version of the Awaji Musubi, in which two pairs of Mizuhiki are tied together. Since it is difficult to untie once tied, it is used for one-time celebrations such as weddings, as well as funerals and other mourning occasions. [Katachō Musubi] This is a way of tying only one side of the "bow knot". Since it can be easily untie and re-tied, it is used to mean "auspicious, it can happen many times." Awaji Musubi: A type of Mizuhiki called "Musubi-kiri". It is considered the highest Mizuhiki knot, which is the basis for all good and bad luck. Once tied, it is difficult to untie, and the Awaji Musubi is tied even stronger when both ends are pulled. It is imbued with the wish that "it will never come apart" and "it will remain firmly tied". Aioi Musubi: Aioi means "growing together from one place". It is likened to "growing together" and "a long life for a married couple", and is one of the auspicious marriage knots. Kanou Musubi: When viewed from the front, the knot looks like a "mouth", and when viewed from the back, it looks like a "ten", and is an auspicious knot that means "wishes will come true". It is similar to a butterfly knot, but the knot is different, and unlike a butterfly knot (morowana musubi) that can be untied by pulling, the Kanou Musubi cannot be untied.
