Tsugaru-nuri chopsticks are made by applying a base coat of tonoko (a type of putty) to a wooden base, drying it, and then sanding to remove any unevenness. The process of applying a layer of roiro lacquer with a specialized spatula, drying, and sanding to eliminate imperfections is repeated. After that, random patterns of green, red, black, and gold lacquer are applied, dried, and then the entire surface is polished to reveal the Karauri pattern. Finally, a transparent lacquer is applied, dried, and the surface is finished, resulting in a very labor-intensive process. These are considered the most durable chopsticks in Japan.
