Late 19th to early 20th century Japanese tea ceremony short hibashi (metal chopsticks for handling charcoal in hibachi brazier) with brass working part and bronze handle inlaid with shakudo and silver keyfret design, and with flower finials. These hibashi are for use in the summer time (winter ones have handle parts covered in wood). Finely made, wonderful quality inlays. Beautiful patina, seem to have never been used, very pleasant to hold. Come with original holder made out of banana leaf. Length 7.5 inches.
