Discover the joy of traditional craftsmanship by making your very own pair of chopsticks. Choose from a variety of beautiful types of wood, each with its own colour, grain, and character. Whether you prefer a lighter or darker tone, or something in between, find the perfect wood to match your taste. Then, select your ideal length; short or long to create chopsticks that truly fit your hand.
Once you've made your selections, place your chopsticks on the stand and use a hand plane to carefully carve them into shape. It's a calming, satisfying process that lets you feel the texture and warmth of the wood. After carving, smooth the surface and edges with sandpaper to bring out the natural beauty and comfort of your chopsticks. Finally, apply a coat of natural oil to protect and enhance the finish, giving them a soft, polished look. As an optional touch, you can have your name engraved in Japanese or your native language, making your chopsticks truly one-of-a-kind.
