About the Origin - Wakasa Lacquerware
The city of Obama produces nearly 90% of Japan’s chopsticks, making it a major hub for chopstick production. Wakasa lacquerware originated in the early Edo period when craftsmen of the Obama domain created designs inspired by the ocean floor. Using materials such as eggshells, blue shells, pine needles, and rapeseed, they crafted chopsticks with a mystical appeal.

These chopsticks are finished by layering colored lacquer and gold leaf, followed by multiple coats of lacquer, resulting in a durable and elegant finish. The chopstick tips, known as "crane's beak," are not only ideal for picking up even the smallest items but also symbolize longevity. These chopsticks are designed for both beauty and practicality, ensuring a reliable experience for daily use.

These chopsticks are available in various sizes, so you can choose the one that fits your hand best.
