Ishida, Premium Chopstick Gift Set (5 Pairs), 230mm
Five Pairs of Japanese Chopsticks in a Wooden Gift Box
A proper gift, ready to give. Five pairs of Ishida chopsticks, each a different colour, presented together in a wooden box, the kind of set a Japanese household keeps for the family and brings out for guests. At 230mm they are full adult length, slim and finely tapered for picking up everything from rice to sashimi, and the different colours mean everyone at the table knows which pair is theirs. Made in Japan by Ishida, a maker known for its tableware and chopsticks, it is an easy, handsome present for anyone who loves Japanese food.

箸 — Hashi, and the family set
In Japan, chopsticks (箸, hashi) are personal. Unlike Western cutlery, which is interchangeable, a household typically keeps "my-hashi", a pair that belongs to each person, often distinguished by colour or pattern. A boxed set of differently coloured pairs like this is the everyday expression of that custom: one for each member of the family, each easy to recognise as their own. It is why a chopstick set is such a natural gift in Japan, practical, personal and quietly thoughtful, and why a wooden presentation box turns five pairs of chopsticks into a present worth giving.
Pair with: the traditional boxed chopstick set or Ishida twisted carbonised bamboo chopsticks
Is this a gift set or for everyday use?
Both. It arrives as a gift, five pairs boxed and ready to give, but these are real, reusable chopsticks made for daily dining, not novelties. Once opened, the set becomes the household's everyday chopsticks, each colour claimed by a different person. That dual life, a present that then earns its place in the kitchen drawer, is exactly what makes it a good gift: useful long after the occasion that prompted it.

How many pairs are in the set?
Five pairs, each a different colour, presented together in a wooden box. It is sized as a family or guest set, with enough pairs for a table and a colour scheme that lets everyone keep track of their own. The wooden box makes it ready to give as it is.
How long are the chopsticks?
230mm, which is a standard adult length in Japan, comfortable for general dining and finely tapered at the tip for picking up rice, noodles and delicate pieces of fish. If you want a shorter pair for children, this set is on the full-size side.
How should I care for them?
Hand wash in warm water and dry promptly. As with most quality wooden and lacquered chopsticks, avoid long soaking and the dishwasher, whose heat and detergents can dull the finish and shorten their life over time. Looked after simply, a set like this lasts for years of everyday use.
