What’s crucial for a getting a good night’s sleep? For many, a good pillow is key, as a bad one can leave you tossing and turning all night trying to get comfortable and leave you with a crick in your neck the next morning. If you need a little extra support, a neck pillow can be just the addition you need.
But don’t settle for just any old, everyday neck pillow. Get one with flare and style… and shrimp!
Part of the Real Cushion series, this ama-ebi, or sweet shrimp cushion measures approximately 40 by 30 centimeters (16 by 12 inches) and weights around 500 grams (18 ounces).
It looks like an ideal neck pillow for long flights or car rides, or simply for lounging around the house and watching TV. It’d probably also make a great gag gift for birthdays, weddings, or for people with shrimp allergies. Because why would you buy a regular neck pillow when you could buy one that looks like an edible crustacean? Yours for only 4,000 yen (US$33) from the online Rakuten marketplace!
Also in the Real Cushion Series are the cabbage pillow, willow stump pillow, manhole pillow, and more!
