Wavy Grip Wood Grain Chopsticks

These wooden chopsticks feature a wavy grip that fits comfortably in the hand, paired with a natural wood-grain pattern that highlights their refined craftsmanship. The carved contours cradle the fingers for better control while maintaining the balanced feel of thicker chopsticks. Available in two traditional finishes—deep red and brownish black—they combine beauty with everyday practicality.

Crafted from laminated makanba (Japanese red birch) wood, made by layering thin sheets of makanba veneer with the grain direction aligned, these chopsticks are exceptionally strong and resistant to warping. Makanba, a hardwood native to Hokkaido, is known for its pale yellowish-white tone and uniform grain. The result is a durable and long-lasting pair of chopsticks designed for both comfort and daily use.
