In Japanese culture, the rabbit is considered a lucky symbol due to their special characteristics like their long ears which allow them to “collect happiness,” and powerful legs that aid them in quickly climbing onwards and upwards. The moon rabbit in particular is significant in Japanese folklore, and is featured on the handle of these chopsticks, which also come with a wooden rabbit-shaped chopstick rest.

Hyoaemon is committed to producing chopsticks that adhere to the highest safety standards. Using virgin lacquer that does not contain harmful ingredients to coat the tips of their chopsticks, and natural wood like ebony, rosewood, cherry tree, and maple; Hyozaemon ensures that customers have peace of mind when selecting their products. Their special consideration for materials all started in the 1970s, when one mother questioned if it was safe for her child to put the tips of worn-out chopsticks in their mouth after grinding down the tip of it like a colored pencil. That question triggered Hyozaemon to review the safety of their chopstick materials, and treat chopsticks more like food regarding the standards to which they are held. Now, Hyoaemon makes chopsticks with the motto "chopsticks are food."

The paulownia gift box is adorned with a cross-stitch inspired design of red roses and text that reads “Thank You As Always.” The chopsticks themselves are made of natural wood and painted in contrasting black and red lacquer. With square-shaped tips, these thoughtfully-designed chopsticks make it easy to grip onto even the most delicate foods. 

“Thank You” Chopsticks with Cross-Stitch Design Gift Box

Ideal as a gift for couples or between partners, the paulownia box features an illustration of a red thread that unravels to form the outline of a couple beside a heart shape. Nestled in the box are two ceramic chopstick rests and two pairs of chopsticks–one red pair and one black. The iridescent, mother-of-pearl-type decoration that extends along the length of their handles forms a common thread between these two contrasting chopstick sets, giving a sense of unity.

Capable of quickly climbing up hills with their short front legs and powerful long hind legs, rabbits have long been regarded as a symbol of happiness and luck in Japan. In hopes of capturing some of this luck, these red lacquered chopsticks feature a motif of a white rabbit against a full moon.
