"Autumn of work / Yuki Terada"

Since joining SOU · SOU, opportunities to receive matcha and sweets more than before increased.

It is a toothpick which was made by shaving trees called black chrome, its name as "Black chrome" as an essential tool when getting Japanese sweets.

While accepting a lecture to the carpenter's father, I decided to try making my own using the raw Chrome tree.

Cut out a thick and good part from this prepared delicate chromogenic branch and divide it by the thickness of black letters.


With scales that became thin to some extent, carefully scrape the surface and sides with a chisel and a scalpel.

Kuromoji seems to be said to be "Japanese aroma", and when it shaved, an elegant and refreshing scent expanded, unintentionally stopping his hand and breathing deeply.


Cutting while taking a little father 's hands ... 15 minutes ... It was completed in shape.


To try using the completed black letters at once.



A firm texture and a nice scent unique to the raw tree!

When you make things you normally use casually, your attachment will rise and it will be more fun time.

Seasonal sweets and delicious green tea, a luxurious and happy moment.
