Product Info
Discover a unique cultural experience in Kyoto by crafting your own pair of traditional Japanese chopsticks.
In this hands-on workshop, you will select your favorite wood from five carefully chosen types: Hinoki (Japanese cypress), White Oak, Cherry, Walnut, and Purple Heart. Each wood has its own texture, color, and character, allowing you to create a pair of chopsticks that truly reflects your personal style.
Guided by friendly instructors, you will shape, sand, and finish your chopsticks step by step. The process is simple and enjoyable, making it suitable for beginners and travelers of all ages.
To make your chopsticks even more special, you can add a personalized engraving as an optional upgrade—perfect for names, dates, or meaningful words.
At the end of the experience, you will take home your handmade chopsticks as a one-of-a-kind souvenir from Japan—something you can use and cherish every day.
This experience is perfect for those looking to enjoy Japanese culture in a creative and memorable way while visiting Kyoto.
