Crystal Komorebi Chopsticks Pair Set with Chopstick Rests

Beautifully hand-painted, these chopsticks from Matsukan's Crystal series are a tribute to the vibrant colors of spring and summer. Inspired by komorebi—the poetic Japanese term for sunlight filtering light through tree leaves—each pair is crafted with graceful brushwork and finished with a matte texture, expressing the serene dance of light and shadow within a lush forest.

The spring variant, rendered in soft hues of pink and green, captures the delicate and tender luminescence of sunlight filtering through budding trees. The summer design encapsulates the cool refuge found under tree canopies on sizzling summer days with green, gold, and brown tones.

The pairing of these enchantingly elegantly crafted handcrafted chopsticks laid on top of the delicately colored Hasami ware chopstick rests makes this set a wonderful gift idea for lovers of authentic Japanese tableware items. 

The Crystal series chopsticks feature the distinctive fude-gaki technique, an inventive brush-painting method developed by master craftsman Matoba Masayoshi of Matsukan. At present, his brush-painting technique flourishes in the hands of the next-generation artisan, Fujii Yuya, who produces countless captivating pieces.
