Kawai

About

Based in Obama City, Fukui Prefecture, Kawai has been crafting wooden chopsticks since 1943, carrying forward the region’s rich tradition of Wakasa lacquerware. Using locally sourced woods and refined lacquering techniques, its artisans create chopsticks that balance comfort, durability, and natural beauty. Each pair is made with care to feel good in the hand and to bring warmth and ease to every meal.
