Packaging

The premium Japanese chopsticks from JP design arrived in a recycled box. This one was undamaged, but had to be opened using a tool. Inside the box was the gift box containing the chopstick set, wrapped in plastic. The foil might not have been necessary, but it protects the gift box from dirt and scratches. Thus became the product protection fully guaranteed and the chopsticks were in perfect condition.
The packaging of the chopsticks is partial recyclable. Whereas the plastic foil not recycled can be. Regardless, the presentation of the product makes one very good impression. Neither the chopsticks nor the gift box were damaged.

Chopsticks with gold accents

First of all, it should be mentioned that the Color combination of black and gold looks very attractive and classy. The chopsticks are made of plastic with elegant, gold metal-look accents at the top. In the lower area, the so-called recording area, the surface has been slightly roughened so that a better grip is achieved. On pressure the material of the chopsticks gives way a little and then returns to its original state, so that an immediate prevented from breaking becomes. In addition, two shelves are supplied, the Hygiene and a neat appearance ensure when eating. The gift box, which can be used for further storage of the chopsticks, should be emphasized. This shows you slight chemical smell on that himself not transferred to the product has. In addition, it disappears after a certain time. Apart from that, she sticks with her thoughtful concept the individual parts in place with elastic fastening straps. The only concern is the placement of parts that are not yet completely dry, as the recycled cardboard could soften.
In terms of sustainability JP design thought along, because the chopsticks are Dishwasher safe and heat resistant up to 180°C. According to the manufacturer, the product loses neither shape, colour, quality nor design, so that the Easy to handle cleaning should be.

Eating with premium Japanese chopsticks from JP design gave us pleasure during testing. First of all, the weight was in the hand and the material in the mouth for users who would otherwise use wooden sticks getting used to. But the feeling for it came up quickly, because the center of gravity of the chopsticks Balance between the fingers is easy to find and the food is almost as easy to pick up thanks to the roughened surface effortless. Failing that, the rice was harder to grab. Therefore the product is suitable only conditionally for chopstick beginners. In other words, the new coordination that needs to be learned, together with the slightly heavier weight of the chopsticks, could lead to difficulties.
The enclosed instructions explain how to use it understandable with the help of pictures, but there is no English or multilingual version. The one linked in it E-book with sushi recipes represents a nice addition that the product as a gift optimally rounded off.
The chemical scent the gift box may unsettle you. However, they are required food safety certificates for all product components and the Chopsticks smell neutral. Cleaning is effortless by hand or in the dishwasher. How this behaves in practice would have to be determined in a long-term test. After the first dishwasher cycle, the product was still in its original condition.
