Sakura Yamanaka Lacquerware Chopsticks
These Yamanaka lacquerware chopsticks feature a sleek and elegant design. Multiple layers of lacquer, applied with the fuki-urushi technique, give the chopsticks a beautiful shine. The black chopsticks are 23 cm (9 in) in length, while the red pair measures 21 cm (8.2 in), allowing you to choose the perfect fit for your hand.
The handle is crafted with alternating surface textures for easy holding, including a non-slip texture, perfectly combining functionality and aesthetics.
Wild cherry blossom wood is often used for chopsticks in Japan. Its smooth and light nature makes it an ideal material for chopsticks.
Yamanaka lacquerware originates from the Yamanaka Onsen area in Kaga, Ishikawa Prefecture. Known for its exquisite wood texture and durability, Yamanaka lacquerware continuously evolves, integrating contemporary design while preserving a 400-year-old tradition.
Pair these chopsticks with other items from our Yamanaka Lacquerware collection for a beautiful Japanese table setting.
