Handmade chopsticks from Kaga
These chopsticks are meticulously crafted by artisans at Yoshita Kasyou Studio, a renowned Kaga lacquerware maker famous for its tea ceremony utensils. Named "Urushi Kenko-bashi" (Urushi Health Chopsticks) with the hope of bringing good health to our customers, each pair has a subtly different appearance, making them truly unique and one-of-a-kind pieces.
[Easy to pick up food]
These chopsticks feature a silver pear-skin finish at the tip, making them easy to pick up and eat grilled fish, tofu, and other foods. The pentagonal shape at the base of the chopsticks is considered auspicious, earning them the nickname "passing grade chopsticks." They make an excellent gift for celebrations, for wishing success in exams, or as a present for someone from another country.
[Dishwasher-safe chopsticks]
You can use a dishwasher to save time on household chores. Even with a normal washing mode (85°C to 90°C), the natural lacquer on the tips of the chopsticks may lose some of its shine, but there is no need to worry about the lacquer peeling off or the shape becoming distorted. *If your dishwasher has a low-temperature washing cycle, we recommend using the low temperature setting.
[Perfect for celebrations and gifts]
Presented in a decorative box reminiscent of the night sky, these "Makie Urushi Health Chopsticks" from Japan incorporate the traditional techniques of Kaga makie (lacquerware) into everyday life. They become more cherished with each use. They are also a popular choice for celebrations, anniversaries, and birthday gifts.
