Wajima Urushi Lacquered Wooden Chopsticks & Rest Set in Gift Box: Red Sakura (Cherry Blossom) Chopsticks with Kurashiki Ribbon Rest [Made in Japan]

The philosophy of Japanese food is that ingredients are at their tastiest, most flavorful, and most nutritious when they are in season. To enjoy ingredients at their best, Japanese chopsticks are usually made of wood. For example, raw fish or white rice taste different when using metal chopsticks. Thus chopsticks are a critical part of Japanese food culture. Luxury chopsticks, usually made of wood and coated with Urushi lacker, can turn ordinary mealtimes into special dining experiences. Although small in size, they are filled with art created by tradition and craftsmanship and can take months to make.We carry a variety of luxury chopsticks that are completely handmade in Japan and made of natural materials to create their superb designs. Find the perfect chopsticks for your table from affordable pairs you will want to use daily, to expensive chopsticks for a special occasion!
