Expressing the brilliance of the night sky! Dishwasher-safe Wakasa-nuri chopsticks

These chopsticks are made using the techniques of Wakasa-nuri, a type of lacquerware produced in the Obama City area. While more and more products are produced by machine, the "Crystall" series chopsticks are a gem of craftsmanship, made by hand by artisans with a lot of care. The most attractive feature of these chopsticks is their beautiful design, which depicts countless stars fluttering in the night sky, just like a painting. The chopsticks can be personalized and are dishwasher-safe, making them special and easy to use.

Chopsticks Feature 1

Gorgeous Wakasa lacquered chopsticks made by hand.

Wakasa-nuri is a traditional craft of Fukui Prefecture. Wakasa-nuri refers to the lacquerware produced in the Obama City area, and Wakasa-nuri accounts for most of the production of lacquered chopsticks in Japan. While machine-made products are on the rise, the "Crystal" series of chopsticks is a gem, made by hand by craftsmen with a lot of thought and care.

Using chopsticks as a canvas, the beautiful design depicts countless stars fluttering in the night sky like a painting, creating a uniquely gorgeous impression.

It can be said that these chopsticks were created by a craftsman who, while making full use of traditional Wakasa-nuri techniques, has honed his skills day by day to create chopsticks that transcend conventional boundaries and make use of free ideas.

Your own special pair of chopsticks! Free personalization service

Chopsticks can be personalized free of charge. The personalization, applied using the lacquer coating technique, is elegant yet eye-catching and gorgeous.

You can choose from kanji, hiragana, katakana, and romaji, and you can add up to six characters to make your own special chopsticks.

Chopsticks are a good luck charm that is appreciated as a gift. It would be wonderful to present Wakasa lacquered chopsticks with names on them for life milestones such as birthdays and longevity celebrations.

Collaboration of traditional crafts! Hasami-ware chopstick rests are included in the set!

The Wakasa lacquered chopsticks are paired with chopstick rests made of Hasami-ware, a ceramic produced in Nagasaki Prefecture. The fresh pastel blue color synchronizes with the blue lines of the Wakasa lacquered chopsticks and brightens up the dining table.

Even those who do not normally use chopstick rests do not need to buy additional chopstick rests to match the chopsticks, as they are included in the set. We hope you will enjoy coordinating your table with chopsticks and chopstick rests.

Chopsticks Feature 4

Dishwasher-safe! Lacquered chopsticks that can be used every day without hesitation.

As a craftwork using lacquer coating techniques, there is concern about how to care for the chopsticks, but since they are coated with urethane resin, they can be used in a dishwasher.

If you are not using a dishwasher, you can wash the dishes with a soft, non-scratchy sponge and mild detergent, just as you would wash dishes.

Roundness that fits comfortably in the hand and a tip that makes it easy to grasp things

The corners of the chopsticks are rounded to fit comfortably in the hand. The tips of the chopsticks are not too thick, but moderately thin, and the rough finish allows for a firm grip on slippery noodles and small food items.

The length of the chopsticks is 23 cm, which is said to be comfortable to hold on average, making them easy to use for both men and women.
