For That Special Someone


Chopsticks can't be left out of Japanese life.
With good chopsticks, the longer you use them, the fonder of them you grow.
Have you ever considered those chopsticks as gift-giving material?
Here are few examples.

The Triple-Pair Set of Chopsticks for the Couple and Child

This set includes a married couple ("meoto") chopsticks set and a pair for the baby.
The length of the chopsticks is part of Japan's own "shindo-shaku" (body size) culture. Just as the husband and wife's chopsticks are slightly different in length, the child's chopsticks change as the hands grow bigger.
When giving this set as a gift, we will help you in first choosing the length appropriate for the child's height and age. If there are two children in the family, the "Four-Pair" set is available.


Congratulatory Chopsticks for the Newlywed Couple

"Two sticks are a pair" is the way of the chopsticks.
In that sense, Chopsticks are the perfect gift for a newlywed couple.
Choose chopsticks that will last a lifetime.
The character for "Congratulations" or "Forever and Ever" can be designed on them.

Baby's First Chopsticks

On the one-hundredth day after birth, babies are fed their first rice in a ceremony called "First Chopsticks" (it differs according to region).
The adult feeds the child at this point, but at age 2 or 3 the child will begin to use those commemorative chopsticks on his or her own.

Chopsticks Celebrating the Ages of 3, 5, and 7

Small children are often given durable spoons for eating, but from the point of view of intellectual development, it is desirable to use chopsticks from early on.
As the wisdom of various regions illustrates, lacquer chopsticks are preferable to plastic.

Chopsticks Designed with Sexegenaric Calendar Pictures or Owners' Names





Who doesn't want chopsticks Designed with their own emblem for use at the family dinner table?
Chopsticks with a picture of the user's sexegenaric birth year or name are fun and kids will like them too.
Or for guests that visit frequently, provide them with their own special chopsticks with a 12-pair cyclical calendar chopsticks set.
