Like new used item measuring 8.5 in. x 3 in. x 1 in. Country of origin and material are unknown. There are very light scuff marks on the lid and where the lid contacts the box. We ask those who can judge based on the photos to make a purchase. It depicts bamboo and a small bird. It is unclear what bird is depicted, but sparrows and bamboo have been seen in the crest of the Uesugi family since ancient times. The combination of bamboo (sasa), which is evergreen and has deep and wide roots, and sparrows is said to symbolize "prosperity of descendants" or "prosperity of the family." The sparrow, which symbolizes "warding off evil," "household safety," and "wealth and prosperity," is also said to be "a chick of the phoenix." In addition to being a chopstick case, it can be used for various purposes such as glasses holder, accessory case, pen case, small item storage, or sewing tools storage. Thank you for looking.
