{"product_id":"shrimp-nigiri-pillow","title":"Shrimp Nigiri Pillow","description":"\u003ch2\u003eShrimp Nigiri Pillow in the Shape of an Ebi Sushi\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eEbi\u003c\/em\u003e, shrimp, is the piece of sushi that everyone recognizes, including people who have never eaten raw fish. That is partly because it is cooked. The shrimp is skewered so it stays straight, poached, peeled, then butterflied open and pressed over a block of rice with its tail left on. The result is a neat orange and white striped arch with a small fan at the end, and it has been on sushi counters since nigiri was first sold in the streets of Edo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis shrimp nigiri pillow copies that arch. The shrimp is printed in soft bands of coral and white that follow the curve of the body, and it ends in a tail whose fins are cut out separately, so they stick out from the cushion the way a real tail sticks out from the rice. Underneath, the rice is drawn grain by grain in off-white, rounded at the edges like a piece shaped by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pillow is about 16 in long, 40 cm, from the head of the shrimp to the tip of the tail. It is printed on both faces of a micro plush fabric with a short, smooth pile, and stuffed with polyester fiber so it stays plump. The seam runs hidden along the side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tail gives the shrimp nigiri pillow more character than a plain cushion: it has a front and a back, a direction, almost a posture. It looks at home on a sofa, at the foot of a bed or on a window seat, and children tend to adopt it as a soft toy. It belongs to a set with salmon, tamago, a maki roll and an onigiri, and the shrimp is the one that brings a warm, pale color to the group.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: about 16 in (40 cm) at the longest side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFabric: micro plush polyester, printed front and back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilling: polyester fiber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: shrimp nigiri with cut-out tail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCover not removable, spot clean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"JAPAN CLOTHING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54647443128667,"sku":"14:29","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/9300\/2473\/files\/shrimp-nigiri-pillow_1.jpg?v=1793905033","url":"https:\/\/japan-clothing.com\/products\/shrimp-nigiri-pillow","provider":"JAPAN CLOTHING","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
