【Couple's Chopsticks】Rimpa | Wakasa Lacquerware Chopsticks | Hashikura Matsukan

Designs loved and drawn by Japanese artists
【Plum blossoms and pine announcing the arrival of spring】
These are auspicious chopsticks depicting plum blossoms, a symbol of longevity and health due to their strong vitality, and pine, which is always youthful with its evergreen leaves.
【Elegant wisteria flowers and supple bamboo】
Wisteria flowers, loved in Japan since ancient times, are associated with "immortality" from the sound of "fuji" (wisteria), carrying wishes for longevity.
Bamboo, which grows straight upwards and is strong and resilient, signifies growth and prosperity of descendants.
We have expressed motifs from the "Rimpa" school of Japanese art, which began in the late 1500s and has been passed down through generations, with modern coloring.
"Rimpa" is a free and open art form where painters, inspired by the works of their predecessors across eras, learned the techniques independently and established their own originality.
It is characterized by its calculated composition and vibrant colors, based on the techniques of ink wash painting and Yamato-e.
A chopstick rest decorated with gold leaf on clear resin is included, and it is presented in a Japan blue box.
These chopsticks, with their gorgeous and dynamic patterns, are perfect as gifts for birthdays or celebrations of longevity for your loved ones.
