(The town briefly went viral in 2008 when it gifted a set to President Barack Obama on the strength of the name alone.) These chopsticks skip all of that. They're a simple square shape with a gentle hand-shaved curve for comfort, coated rather than lacquered, and finished to be water resistant and dishwasher safe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wood comes from offcuts: scraps left over from furniture making, old barrels, and fruit trees that have stopped bearing fruit, sourced locally where possible to keep transport down. Each variety has its own grain, color, and feel, so the choice is really about which wood you'd rather have in your hand every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetails:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSakura, oak, birch, beech, or chestnut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater resistant coating, dishwasher safe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-shaved, finished individually\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBy Ogishi Tadashi Shoten\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Obama, Fukui, Japan 🇯🇵\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Secret Canyon","offers":[{"title":"Sakura","offer_id":47768929501420,"sku":null,"price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Oak","offer_id":47768929534188,"sku":null,"price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Birch","offer_id":47768929566956,"sku":null,"price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Beech","offer_id":47768929599724,"sku":null,"price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Chestnut","offer_id":47768929632492,"sku":null,"price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0828\/5578\/8780\/files\/secret-canyon-ogishi-tadashi-shoten-chopsticks-lifestyle-no-1.jpg?v=1782088186","url":"https:\/\/secretcanyon.com\/products\/japanese-wooden-chopsticks","provider":"Secret Canyon","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
