The Beauty of Kyoto Saga Raden: Handcrafted Luxury for Your Table

Sep 22, 2026

Ever wondered what makes traditional Japanese tableware so special?
It’s the story woven into every single detail.

Meet the Saga Raden Tensoge Chopsticks - Shippo, masterfully created in Kyoto by certified master artisan Mamoru Nomura.

Unlike mass-produced utensils, master Nomura personally oversees and executes every critical step of production—from applying the smooth lacquer coatings to meticulously hand-inlaying shimmering mother-of-pearl (Raden).

What Makes Them Extraordinary:

  • Master Artisan Handiwork

    Crafted by a renowned Kyoto master artisan skilled in both foundational lacquering and delicate decoration. 

  • Rare Striped Ebony

    Made from dense, durable premium wood (Shimakokutan) that offers perfect balance and finely tapered tips for effortless dining.

  • The Shippo Pattern

    The overlapping circles of mother-of-pearl represent "Seven Treasures"—an auspicious Japanese motif symbolizing harmony, connection, and endless good fortune.


Whether you're hosting an intimate dinner or looking for a meaningful gift that lasts generations, these chopsticks bring centuries of Kyoto heritage straight to your table.

✨Elevate your everyday dining with authentic Japanese craftsmanship.
