Asada 2 colour dishwashable chopsticks

£2200

These 2 colour chopsticks are the same shape as the Asada lacquered chopsticks but have a contrasting top section in a metallic lacquer.  As with the single colour ones, these can be put in the dishwasher but they are quite slim and refined so can slip through the base of your cutlery basket. They are available in four colours:

  1. Silky Pink (Red Base, Pink Detail)
  2. Champagne Gold (Red Base, Gold Detail)
  3. Green Pearl (Black Base, Green Detail)
  4. Cool Black (Black Base, Blue Detail)

(Chopstick rests not included!)

From the Asada Workshop, near the coast of Ishikawa prefecture on the North side of Honshū

  • 14.0cm High, 0.3cm Wide, 0.3cm Long

Care Guide

These are not suitable for putting in the dishwasher, microwave or oven, and please do not use metal cutlery as it will damage the lacquer. (Although some of the chopsticks are dishwashable and are clearly marked as such, if you are in any doubt, please just ask us)

Wooden and lacquered items can seem difficult to care for but with a few simple rules, they can actually last for a long time. Please hand wash with care: do not immerse for any length of time or use an abrasive cleaning pad, and dry with a soft cloth as soon as you can after washing, then give a final wipe with a dry cloth to prevent any dulling.

Do not place in direct sunlight, this can cause discolouration or deformation. Although in Japanese aesthetics worn or discoloured lacquer shows the length of time you have used something and some people view this wear as very attractive.

Meet the Maker:

Asada Workshop

Yamanakaonsen in Ishikawa is famous for the skill of its woodturners and they use natural lacquer to show off both their skill and the natural beauty of the wood grain.

The Asada family use urushi lacquer as well as mitsurou beeswax lacquer with several types of wood (all sustainably harvested) including sen, zelkova and oak
