Handmade chopsticks made from black persimmon wood. Each chopstick is shaped using a belt sander and meticulously finished entirely by hand. Black persimmon wood is said to appear in only one out of several thousand persimmon trees. Due to its rarity, it has long been prized as a fine wood for tea ceremony utensils, Buddhist altars, furniture, go boards, and more. The handle is textured, and you will find that it fits comfortably in your hand better than standard round or square chopsticks. Length: 22cm Thank you.
