About the Origin - Echizen Lacquerware
Echizen lacquerware has a long history that is said to date back to the 6th century. A defining technique of these chopsticks is hananuri, where the final lacquer coating is applied and dried carefully to avoid brush marks or dust, resulting in a smooth and flawless finish. The lacquered surface offers a delightful texture and enhances the dining experience. Additionally, the gold leaf used in the design becomes even more beautiful with time, making these chopsticks a joy to use and cherish.
These chopsticks are available in different sizes, so you can choose the one that best fits your hand.
