Description
Create your own personalized Japanese chopsticks in Osaka. Choose your favorite wood, shape and polish them by hand, and take home a unique handmade souvenir.
Create your own personalized Japanese chopsticks in a hands-on workshop in Namba, Osaka.
Begin by choosing your favorite wood from a selection of varieties, each with its own color, grain, texture, and character. With step-by-step guidance from your instructor, shape your chopsticks by hand and carefully smooth the surface using sandpaper.
Continue polishing and refining your chopsticks until they feel comfortable to hold. Apply a natural finishing oil to protect the wood and bring out the beauty of its grain.
Optional engraving is also available if you would like to add your name, a special date, or a meaningful Japanese character.
No previous woodworking experience is required, and guidance is provided in simple English. Take your handmade chopsticks home on the same day as a practical, personal, and one-of-a-kind souvenir from Osaka.
