By simply placing them on your everyday dining table, you can enjoy a more elevated dining experience. A “painted chopstick rest” has arrived that makes home-cooked meals feel a bit more special. It’s a sophisticated Japanese-modern item for adults that combines Snoopy with auspicious traditional patterns unique to Japan.

Hello! I’m Sekai, a virtual reporter for Perfect World Tokyo!
This time, I’m introducing painted chopstick rests featuring Snoopy. The auspicious designs incorporating traditional Japanese patterns are recommended not only for everyday use but also as gifts. It’s wonderful that there are two types available: individual items where you can choose your favorite design, and a luxurious set. In the latter half, I’ll also introduce chopsticks you’ll want to use together.

Snoopy chopstick rests

This is the Snoopy Rectangular Chopstick Rest. The simple and easy-to-use square design has plenty of Japanese-modern atmosphere. It blends seamlessly with a wide range of dining tables, making it an item that’s easy to incorporate into daily meals.

This one, where you can simply enjoy Snoopy’s adorable face, features the ‘gourd pattern’. The gourd, long cherished as an auspicious charm for warding off evil and ensuring good health, has been cleverly reimagined as Snoopy’s face. The little paws added on both sides are so charming!

The size is 3.5cm × 5cm × 0.5cm. Since it curves upward, the chopsticks won’t roll even when resting the tips on it, showing careful attention to usability. It’s nice to see such detailed consideration in such a small chopstick rest.

The ‘wave pattern’ chopstick rest depicts Snoopy enjoying surfing. Waves are considered an auspicious pattern representing the wish for a peaceful life to continue uninterrupted, and combining them with surfing creates a sophisticated and fun design.

A unique design featuring Snoopy lounging on the peak of Japan’s highest mountain, Mount Fuji, is the ‘Fuji pattern’ chopstick rest. Mount Fuji, which expands at its base and represents longevity and good fortune, brings outstanding auspiciousness. It’s a piece you’ll definitely want to incorporate not only into everyday dining but also at celebratory meals.

The modern design that could also look like a Western checkerboard pattern is the ‘Ichimatsu pattern’ chopstick rest. While it’s an auspicious pattern expressing wishes for prosperity and development, it also gives the impression of crisply tightening your table setting. The regular, orderly pattern would work well with both Japanese and Western dishes.

You can have fun choosing from these four designs by looking up their meanings or simply by Snoopy’s cuteness. Here’s a set that luxuriously includes all four patterns.

Luxuriously, it comes in a wooden box with openwork designs of Snoopy and Woodstock! It also features the Seigaiha pattern, which already looks quite auspicious just by itself.

Why not choose this as a reward for yourself or as a gift for someone special who loves Snoopy?

Pairing them with chopsticks in natural colors that blend with your dining table would also be very much appreciated. Be sure to check these out along with the latest Snoopy news!
