🔴 Shipping starts from
Iwaibashi Japanese festive chopsticks made from hinoki wood, in a hot-foil-stamped washi paper case
In Japan, the first meal of the year is not eaten with ordinary chopsticks: instead, iwaibashi – festive chopsticks – are brought out. Both ends are tapered, one for you and the other for the god of the year, who shares the meal. These are carved from hinoki, Japanese cypress, and kept in a washi paper case, its design hot-foil stamped in several passes. Tradition dictates that each guest’s first name is written on their case, and that the same chopsticks are kept until 7 January.
