WAKASA Lacquerware Wooden Chopsticks (14 Styles)

Wakasa lacquered chopsticks by Seikagama, a famous Kutani ware kiln. Wakasa lacquered chopsticks are lacquered chopsticks produced in Obama City, Fukui Prefecture. Because they are resistant to water and heat, they are widely used as daily necessities, and Wakasa lacquered chopsticks account for most of the lacquered chopsticks produced in Japan. The charm of Wakasa-nuri chopsticks lies in the fact that each craftsman's individuality is strongly reflected in the work, as all processes are carried out by a single artisan rather than through the division of labor. The patterns are Kutani Iroe with a dignified and elegant texture, harmonizing the traditional patterns born in the 360-year history of Wakasa-nuri with the modern age. It is dishwasher-safe and recommended for both daily use and as a gift.
