These chopsticks feature vibrant colors reminiscent of colored paper and a gentle luster, combining beauty an practicality.
They were created as a set with irogami chopstick rests, made from the same material and with the same texture, enhancing each other’s appeal.
With a focus on usability, this product was created through repeated prototyping in 0.1mm increments.

This product was designed by Tsuboe Inc, a Japanese metalworking specialist with over 110 years of history.

It features two sides: a standard sponge surface and a brush surface.
This sponge is ideal for maintaining traditional Japanese kitchen tools like graters.

Use the brush side to thoroughly remove dirt from the grating surface, and the sponge side to gently wash the body.
It can also be used for a wide range of applications, such as cleaning strainers, dishes, and washing vegetables.

Tsuboe is dedicated not only to “creating the finest tools,” but also to “properly maintaining those tools to ensure they are used long, well, and beautifully.”

This grater is manufactured by Tsuboe Inc., a Japanese metalworking specialist with over 110 years of experience.

The corner fits perfectly in the palm of your hand as they are curled like a piece of paper.
You can feel as if you were directly grating the food with the palm of your hand.

The Japanese craftsmanship and high design quality reflected in the products have gained widespread recognition in many countries, as evidenced by sales figures at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in the United States.
