Ishida

Ishida is a creator of Wakasa lacquerware, a traditional art of Obama in Fukui Prefecture that dates back to the early Edo period (1603–1868 CE). With over eighty years of experience, Ishida continues to honor this rich tradition.

By focusing on materials, design, and texture, they create chopsticks that are both beautiful and functional. Rooted in skilled craftsmanship, Ishida has also developed advanced machinery to produce chopsticks of high quality while remaining cost-effective. Their products harmonize tradition and innovation along with warmth and precision.

Wakasa lacquerware is one of Japan’s leading production centers for lacquered chopsticks. Originating in Obama City, Fukui Prefecture, Wakasa lacquered chopsticks have a history spanning approximately 400 years and currently account for over 80% of domestically produced lacquered chopsticks in Japan.

These chopsticks are crafted using a unique technique that embeds abalone shells and eggshells in lacquer, creating shimmering ocean-inspired designs. While preserving traditional artistry, they are also designed for modern practicality.
