It is made by traditional handwork in Sado Island, Niigata Prefecture, by making use of straws after harvesting rice.
It changes over time, into a profound dark brown. How about some warmth of a handmade product on your everyday dining table?
I am very satisfied with the purchased products, and am impressed with the handling and shipping of my order.
It arrived in a very timely fashion, and I am really happy with the quality of these items. The workmanship of the handmade items is as careful, intricate, and beautiful as I hoped it would be.
As for your webstore, the selection available is very interesting, and I enjoyed shopping there. I hope to see more new things and artisans introduced in the future!
If anything else catches my eye in the future, I will not hesitate to purchase again.

I was taking advantage of strong USD to Japanese ¥, and I am glad I did order many things! :-)
Everything arrived in less than anticipated time frame for delivery and is in perfect condition due to the efficiently and meticulously packed merchandise! I am still mesmerized how efficient Japanese way of packing so many items in this box with no space wasted, yet it is so obvious that it was done with TLC so nothing is damaged! I learned as I unpacked! Everybody needs to learn packing like Japanese! :-)
Opening the package was a great pleasure with a sense of anticipation and mystery even though I knew what I ordered. You could feel the TLC when unwrapping each item like it is coming from a good friend!
I felt confident as always ordering beautiful products from Shokunin, as they are of good quality which will last a long time if I take care of them well and hope could extend their life to the next generation. I kept telling my son that he would inherit those beautiful items ;-). Wish I could get everything they offer..:-).
