Ohashi Belchic Bamboo Chopsticks, Set of 5

This set of wooden chopsticks is hand crafted in the Wakasa region of Japan, an area with over 400 years of chopstick-making tradition. Made from bamboo with a polyester urethane coating, each set includes five pairs of chopsticks in different colors, ideal for use when you have guests. The colorful finish is dishwasher safe and bacteria resistant.

A hexagonal shape offers improved grip and prevents the chopsticks from rolling off the edge of bowls or chopstick rests. These are simple, well-crafted tools designed for everyday use and make a thoughtful housewarming gift.
