Sakura Wood Half Textured 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.

Pair these chopsticks with other items from our Yamanaka Lacquerware collection for a beautiful Japanese table setting.

Yamanaka lacquerware, also known as Yamanaka Shikki, is a lacquerware produced in the Yamanaka Onsen (hot spring) district of Kaga, Ishikawa prefecture. This lacquerware is unique in that it blends the natural elegance of the wood grain with the elegant maki-e technique of sprinkling gold, silver, or other colored powder onto a lacquer painting.

With its beautiful wood texture, delicate and robust Yamanaka Lacquerware is evolving day by day, incorporating a modern sense of design while inheriting a tradition that has lasted for 400 years.
