Matsukan Sakura Cascade Wakasa Lacquerware Set of Two Pairs of Chopsticks 23 cm (9.1 in) / 21 cm (8.3 in) with Chopstick Rests (Set of Two)

Delicate blossoms scattered over a soft gradient of colors evoke the image of cherry blossoms, sakura in Japanese, floating on a clear day. Subtle touches of glitter enhance the impression of a bright spring day, perfect for enjoying sakura in full bloom.

Further adding to the allure are the Hasami ware chopstick rests in a gentle pink hue. They are made using molds that are traditionally reserved for crafting rakugan, a classic Japanese confectionery.  

Presented in a paulownia box with a lid, inscribed with the Japanese words “sakura-saku”—a poetic ode to the blooming of cherry blossoms—these elegantly crafted chopsticks are a connoisseur's delight. 

Matsukan, based in Obama City, Fukui Prefecture, stands as a leading producer of lacquerware chopsticks rooted in the traditional craft of Wakasa lacquerware. 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 beautifully designed to complement contemporary living.
