Yamachiku Nagomi Bamboo Reusable Chopsticks 23 ㎝ / 9.1 in
These beautiful, easy-to-hold chopsticks are a shorter version of Yamachiku's long-selling Ganko Bamboo Reusable Chopsticks. These chopsticks feature a wider top and a narrower bottom, with the upper section adorned in different colors and silver cherry blossom designs. The lower section retains the natural texture and grain of bamboo.
The decorative portion has a matte finish, reflecting a soft sheen and offering a smooth, comfortable grip. They seamlessly blend aesthetic appeal with high functionality, making them both beautiful and practical to use.
Bamboo chopsticks are easy to grip and have a moderate smoothness and lightness. The lightness and flexibility of bamboo make it easy to pinch food, as the chopstick tips are thin but stable.
Yamachiku, a manufacturer of bamboo chopsticks, is located in Kumamoto Prefecture. They cut bamboo one by one from the surrounding mountains and use a combination of hand and machine processing to produce purely domestic bamboo chopsticks.

About Yamachiku Bamboo Chopsticks
Yamachiku is a Kyushu-based factory that has been specializing in bamboo chopsticks for many years.
Bamboo grows well in warm areas, and Kyushu prefecture accounts for about 40% of the total area of bamboo forests in Japan.
For half a century since its predecessor established a bamboo material factory in 1963, Yamachiku has consistently worked to make products that make the most of bamboo.
As a natural material, bamboo is difficult to process, but because Yamachiku is a manufacturer with a thorough understanding of bamboo's nature, they have succeeded in producing many high-quality bamboo chopsticks.
About Japanese Wood Craft
In Japan, 70% of the land is covered with forests, and there are said to be as many as 200 species of trees, including coniferous trees such as cedar and cypress, and broad-leaved trees such as zelkova, chestnut, and horse chestnut, that are used for construction and woodworking. Japanese wood crafts are made by making the most of the characteristics of the wood from each production area. For example, bamboo crafts in Kyushu, Japanese cypress products in Gifu, and cedar products in Akita are famous.
Woodworking techniques developed along with tools, giving rise to a variety of woodworking techniques such as sashimono, carving, gouging, grinding, bending, and hooping. The skillful use of tools such as axes, machetes, planes, saws, chisels, and files in Japanese woodworking supports not only the lives of people but also the cultural heritage of temples and shrines. The elaborate techniques that have been cultivated over a long period of history are highly regarded around the world.
