Pottery and lacquerware are arranged by region of origin and technique.
The various types of chopsticks and kaishi are also introduced with photographs.

The photos of the serving process also help the reader to understand the serving procedure, which is difficult to visualize with text alone.
Details such as serving position, orientation, and height can be confirmed at a glance.
The black circle under the word “器” and the vermilion square under the word “盛” are reminiscent of an origami mat.
