Holly wood brandished chopsticks

Last updated 2026-11-16 — The brandished chopsticks are made from holly wood with suitable growth rings and sturdy trunks. During production, the wood is split into fine strands, then cut into chopstick blanks. These are scraped, rounded, and sanded into plain wooden chopsticks before the branding process. Brandishing is the most crucial step—skilled artisans use controlled, precise wrist and finger movements to burn elegant patterns such as wildflowers, grasses, and flowing mountain streams onto the chopsticks.
