Hyozaemon Wakasa Lacquer First Chopsticks - Red This gift set includes one pair of chopsticks and one chopstick rest, which are the first chopsticks a baby will put in their mouth after birth, in a paulownia wood box.

For my dearest one...your first pair of chopsticks. In the West, it is said that a baby born with a silver spoon in its mouth is said to be happy, but in Japan, a ritual called ``Ouchi Hajime'' is held approximately 100 days after birth. It is a ceremony to celebrate the growth that has taken place since birth and to wish for healthy growth in the future. At that time, I put chopsticks in my mouth for the first time. When it comes to chopsticks, you want to use high-quality, safe and secure chopsticks. In addition, the chopstick rest sea bream has been popular in Japan as a fish that brings good luck, including as a play on the word ``Odetaitai.'' This set is a chopstick set called "Uibashi," which includes traditional Wakasa-lacquered chopsticks and a Meidetai chopstick rest. It is painted with natural lacquer. This set is perfect for the first meal, 100th day celebration, or baby shower gift. The wrapping paper for the paulownia box is decorated with a peach crest. There is a traditional myth that Mikoto of Izanagi threw a peach fruit to drive away evil spirits, and peaches have long been considered a symbol of ``long life'' and ``warding off evil spirits.'' The paulownia box will be delivered wrapped in Japanese paper.
