Original Chopstick-Making Experience
Create your own pair of chopsticks from start to finish. Shape the wood, smooth it with sandpaper, and finish with natural oil for a beautiful shine. The chopsticks you make are yours to take home—a unique souvenir and a lasting memory of your time in Japan.
About Chopsticks and Japan
Chopsticks are an important part of Japanese food culture. They have been used in Japan for more than 2,000 years. Japanese chopsticks are usually made of wood and have a thin, pointed tip, which makes it easy to pick up small pieces of food.
In Japan, people often give chopsticks as gifts because they represent good relationships and connection between people.
We hope this chopstick-making experience becomes a wonderful memory for you！
