Product Name: Hatsune Miku - Happy 16th Birthday Maki-e Chopsticks

Piapro Character Maki-e Chopsticks, which made their debut at Magical Mirai 2020, have returned with a new design to commemorate Miku-san's 16th anniversary! We've made two distinctive designs that are uniquely Miku-san, which may seem unexpected, yet anyone who sees them will understand.
For those who have been using them since 2020, it's time to consider a Maki-e Ohashi upgrade! Don't miss this opportunity. ♪

Based on the responses from the Hashimoto Shitsugei survey, we received numerous requests for the Maki-e Ohashi with a new design:

"I want a new Maki-e chopsticks design."
"A simple and mature design would be nice."
"These chopsticks are enjoyable to use and look at. Looking forward to them."

Thank you so much for your valuable feedback!

As a result of doing our best to implement your feedback, we proudly present the first new design:
Simple Negi Design

Key Features:
▼ Unusual Use of White Japanese Lacquer
White-colored lacquer is a rarity. The original color of lacquer is a translucent amber hue like that of honey, and when mixed with white pigment, it initially exudes a gentle beige texture. However, the lacquer turns whiter over time. As you use it, it will evolve to a unique Negi color that's yours alone.

▼ Natural Wood and Lacquer Finish
Made from Japanese Cypress and finished with natural lacquer, both of which have proven antibacterial properties. It offers a gentle touch and blends harmoniously with your hand.

▼ Carefully Selected Green Shade
A sincere representation of Negi. Realistic.

▼ Entirely Handcrafted
Even the border between the white and green parts of the Negi is diligently hand-painted by skilled artisans. Every Negi is one of a kind.

Thigh High Boots Design

Key Features:
▼ Unique Toki-e Gloss and Sparkling Miku-san Color
The Miku-san color extends all the way to the top surface of the chopsticks. It perfectly complements the black color.

▼ Natural Wood and Lacquer Finish
Lacquer is known for its warm and thick texture, evoking a sense of tranquility. It's often referred to as "healing paint."

▼ Thigh High Boots Motif
A motif is applied in matte black over the glossy black lacquer. The contrasting textures of black create a cool design that changes in the light.

These chopsticks are meticulously crafted using natural wood and lacquer, one by one, with utmost care. Experience the gentle touch unique to lacquer and enjoy the intricacies of the Maki-e design for yourself.
