Thank you for viewing. These are Hida traditional craft Shunkei-nuri chopsticks. Size: 22cm, 10 pairs My mother collected these. I believe she purchased them about 10 years ago, but I found them stored away in a shelf, unused. They are new and unused, still wrapped, but the outer box shows signs of aging. There is no damage to the chopsticks themselves. Thank you. **************************************** "Shunkei" refers to the lacquerware technique called Shunkei-nuri, or the lacquerware made using that technique. Hida Shunkei from Gifu Prefecture is particularly famous, made through the collaborative work of woodworkers and lacquerers, and is characterized by a transparent amber finish that brings out the beauty of the wood grain. **************************************** #Chopsticks #Shunkei #Shunkei-nuri #TraditionalCrafts #HidaTraditionalCrafts
