Product Detail

Feel the world of ancient Japanese artistry, celebrated for over 400 years, with these wooden chopsticks beautifully decorated with traditional motifs of pine trees and bamboo leaves from Matsukan's Rimpa series. Vivid green pine trees are depicted on a white background, while on the light green pair, delicate bamboo leaves are portrayed in green and gold.

Rimpa, a historical school of painting from the Edo period (16031868 CE), takes its themes primarily from nature and seasons, drawing inspiration from classic Japanese literature such as The Tale of Genji and ancient poems composed by courtiers. These chopsticks represent a modern interpretation of Rimpa's vivid artistic world, blending traditional splendor with contemporary colors and design.

The pine tree is celebrated as an auspicious motif for its symbolism of longevity, while the bamboo symbolizes the future prosperity of ones descendants.

Perfect as a gift, this exquisite set comes in a beautifully crafted paulownia box, adorned with powerful, upright bamboo alongside richly thriving branches of pine
