A masterpiece of one of our favorite Japanese craftsmen Mr. Hasehira, these Miyama Chopsticks showcase the natural beauty of premium Japanese Sakura.

Sakura (cherry blossom) plays a central role in Japanese culture and usually used as a material for high-end furniture, musical instruments, buildings, and wood carvings.

The Story

One day, a Miyama woodworker named Mr. Hasehira saw Bento&co featured on national TV, and was inspired to make bento boxes of his own! When we saw his results, we were thrilled. Mr. Hasehira continues to hand make these limited edition bento boxes, and we are honored to be able to sell them on our shop exclusively.
