This product is not colored through plating or painting. It features the beautiful, unique coloration of titanium achieved through anodic oxidation, which creates interference phenomena with light.

This phenomenon is the same as the rainbow-like appearance seen on thin soap bubbles or oil films floating on water.

Titanium's coloration results from the interference of light reflected on the transparent oxide film formed by anodic oxidation on the surface, and light reflected from the titanium surface. This causes certain wavelengths of light to appear as colors, which are enhanced by this interference effect.
This coloration can subtly change depending on the type of light, brightness, and viewing angle.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This item is a pair of chopsticks handmade by a skilled craftsman from Sabae City, Fukui Prefecture, a renowned region for eyeglass manufacturing. Using the techniques cultivated in eyeglass production and made from pure titanium, these chopsticks have been continuously crafted for over 20 years.

'Titanium' is a body-friendly material used in medical instruments, eyeglasses, and accessories. It is less likely to cause metal allergies or environmental hormone concerns, making it safe for everyone from children to the elderly, including those with allergies or pregnant women.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

【Features】
- Lightweight, strong, durable, and rust-resistant, so they can be used for a long time.
- Less likely to cause metal allergies, providing peace of mind.
- No metallic odor, so they do not affect the taste of food.
- Low thermal conductivity, so they do not feel as cold as stainless steel.
- No coloring or printing decorations, eliminating worries about paint peeling.
- Dishwasher and dryer safe, allowing for hygienic use.
- Rounded surfaces provide a gentle feel in the hand and prevent painful edges on fingers.

*************************************************************

★Enhanced strength through our proprietary manufacturing technology
The material used is high-purity titanium with a purity of over 99.5%. However, high-purity metals are soft, and simply shaping them into chopsticks can risk bending under force.
Our company repeatedly forges the pure titanium raw material during the shaping process to increase strength, resulting in sturdy chopsticks tightly packed with titanium.
Therefore, under normal use, they will not break or bend and can be used for a long time.
Additionally, to avoid the heavy feel typical of solid materials, the shape is slim, and the center of gravity is carefully balanced.

★ Harmonizes seamlessly with Western tableware
These chopsticks can be placed alongside Western cutlery such as knives and forks without feeling out of place, making them suitable for any dining setting.

*************************************************************

【Handling Precautions】 Please read carefully to ensure safe use.
- Before use, wash with dish soap and rinse thoroughly.
- Avoid using abrasive scrubbers or polishing powders, as they can cause scratches.
- Do not use for purposes other than eating.
- Since they are metal, do not bring them close to open flames or immerse them in hot substances for extended periods. High temperatures can be dangerous.
- The tips are thin; please be especially careful when children use them.
- Do not bite the chopsticks hard, as this can damage your teeth.
- Over time, scratches or loss of luster may occur, but this does not affect usability.
- If the chopsticks come into contact with the heater in a dishwasher or dish sterilizer, they may discolor or become excessively hot, potentially causing damage or accidents. Please follow the device's instruction manual for proper handling.
- Because they are hard, they may scratch dishes. Please choose and use with care.
- When storing for a long period, keep in a dry place after cleaning to prevent moisture buildup.
- If they do not suit your body, discontinue use immediately.

【Please note】
- Since each pair is handcrafted by artisans, there may be variations in size, shape, and pattern. Thank you for your understanding.
- As the titanium chopsticks are made from solid titanium, small holes or scratches resulting from the refining process may be visible on the surface. This is a characteristic of the raw material and not a defect.
- We strive to reproduce the actual product as closely as possible in the photos, but due to the nature of computer displays, the colors may differ slightly from the actual product. Please understand this in advance.
