This is a set of purpleheart, walnut, cherry, and sapele chopsticks. These chopsticks have a square to circular profile and are 10.6in long and taper from around 7mm to 2mm for Japanese-Style profile. Each set is handmade in my shop in Hoboken, NJ. I made these sets using some of my favorite hardwoods. Close to every part of the process is done by hand, as opposed to a factory. Each piece is cut from a 7mm block and then shaped using my hand plane. I then round the corners using other handtools. Each chopstick is finished by hand using a drying oil-based finish (flavorless) and then a food-safe wax for extra protection.
I started making chopsticks a while ago for myself and gave them out as gifts. Then everyone said for me to start selling them. I thought they were crazy, but after people kept buying more and more locally, I began selling them on Etsy.
This is a set of two!
There are no dyes to bring out the colors in these woods; it is merely a very colorful set of woods. I like to include care instructions with each set as I want to use these chopsticks for years to come and share with friends.
If you ever want a custom set of chopsticks, please let me know. I love deals to take requests!
