Designs that Japanese artists continue to love and draw
[Plum and pine trees heralding the arrival of spring]
These auspicious chopsticks depict a plum tree, which is a symbol of longevity and health due to its strong life force, and a pine tree, which is evergreen and always young.
[Graceful wisteria flowers and supple bamboo]
The wisteria flower, which has been popular in Japan since ancient times, is pronounced "fuji" and is associated with "immortality" and wishes for longevity.
Bamboo, which grows straight upwards and is strong and sturdy, signifies growth and prosperity of offspring.
The motifs of the Rimpa of Japanese art, which began in the late 1500s and has been handed down from generation to generation, are expressed in a modern colour scheme.
The Rimpa style is a free and open art form in which painters, inspired by the works of their predecessors throughout the ages, established their own originality by copying and learning the techniques of their predecessors.
Based on the techniques of Suiboku-ga(India-ink painting) and Yamato-e(classical Japan decorative paintings), it is characterised by its calculated composition and vivid colours.
Chopstick rests painted in gold leaf on clear resin, set in a Japan blue box.
Chopsticks with gorgeous and extended designs make the perfect birthday or longevity gift for a loved one.
