Fukunishi Sobe Rabbit Aizu Lacquerware Set of Two Pairs of Chopsticks 23 cm (9 in) and 21 cm (8.3 in)
This is a set of chopsticks with a gold rabbit motif. The lacquer on the top has a beautiful sheen, and the chopsticks are thick enough to hold easily. The lower part features a lovely wood grain and is finished with the natural color and texture of the wood.
These chopsticks not only feature an adorable appearance but are also highly functional. Their design, wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, makes it easier to grasp food, providing a comfortable and enjoyable dining experience.
In Japan, rabbits are seen as a lucky symbol for the pursuit of progress, as they steadfastly move forward without looking back.
Suitable not only for daily use, the set also makes an ideal gift for colleagues, friends, or family members. In addition, its timeless traditional design is ideal for long-term use or entertaining guests.

ABOUT FUKUNISHI SOBE
Fukunishi-Sobei Shoten was started by taking over the lacquerware division from the main family, which had been in existence for 13 generations since the early Edo period. They have developed their products over time by figuring out "what must not be changed and what must be changed". In addition to the lacquering technique that makes the most of the moist luster of lacquerware, the company has handed down the unique decorative techniques of Aizu, such as Aizu-e painting with motifs of pine, bamboo, plum, and ceremonial arrow, and the spinning wheel. Fukunishi Soubei's lacquerware flexibly incorporates modern industrial technology, and is a special product that has a high artistic value as well as an aspect of being daily use items with which long-time use gives an additional charm.
