Speaking of which, Bunny explores with you what are the characteristics about traditional Japanese tableware!

According to Japanese media reports, Japan, which is located in East Asia, maintains a traditional oriental aesthetic, but also actively absorbs the culture of the West. The tableware essential for every day's meals reflects this well. Nowadays, Japanese people use both wooden dishes and chopsticks as well as metal knives and forks.

There are many ways to make Japanese tableware, but the Italian man mentioned "Iko-Yaki", which originated in Tochigi Prefecture in Japan. Its color is retro, the texture is thick, and the surface of the cutlery is not smooth, in pursuit of a natural feel. Japanese tableware is small but exquisite, and in order to match the food of different seasons, the surface of the tableware is often painted with the representative patterns of different seasons.

There are too many types. When buying a whole set of tableware, you have to think about the expense. (Sri Lankan male, 55)

Ornamental more than practical. (Polish female, 20 years old)
