Description

Enjoy the striking combination of red and black with these Wakasa lacquerware chopsticks handcrafted by Furui Masahiro, a designated traditional craftsperson of Wakasa lacquerware.

The black pair adopts the akebono method of lacquer coating, contrasting a base coat of red with a black finish. The red pair, coated using the negoro technique, layers lustrous vermilion over a black undercoat. Originating from Wakayama Prefecture, these techniques reveal the subtle color of the base coat through meticulous polishing.

The set comes in a paulownia box with a lid that features elegant Japanese calligraphy displaying the characters Wakasa Lacquerware Chopsticks along with the artisan's name. Whether as a gift for a friend or family member, or purchased for your own personal enjoyment, these chopsticks are a splendid choice certain to bring joy.

Since its beginning in 1922, Matsukan has remained dedicated solely to chopstick manufacturing. While honoring the intricate artistry and lasting craftsmanship of Wakasa lacquerware, their products are thoughtfully designed to complement contemporary living.
