Marquetry pencil shavings hemp leaves
Hakone marquetry creates a variety of patterns by making use of many natural wood colors and combining them.
A delicate "hemp leaf pattern" is expressed using solid wood marquetry, and it is made into an elegant pencil shaving.
The hemp leaf pattern is a traditional Japanese pattern that has been popular since ancient times, as it symbolizes wishes for the healthy growth of children and wards off evil spirits.
This small hexagonal box-shaped pencil sharpener with a hemp leaf pattern has a stable sharpening feel, and the soft color of the solid wood, each one unique, creates a small but gentle space.
The sharpness is obvious when you look at the pencil shavings (pencil flakes).
It's amazing how they connect round and round without any interruptions.
It can be used not only for handicraft chalk pens, but also for colored pencils, pencils, etc.

■Please be careful
We cannot replace blades at our store. Thank you for your understanding.
Since we use natural wood, there may be differences in color and grain depending on the product.
Please avoid getting it wet.
Gently wipe away dirt on the surface with a dry cloth.
Lightly soaking a cloth with a natural oil such as camellia oil and applying it will make it last longer and give it a shine.
Remove pencil shavings (especially the core) as soon as possible. Leaving it inside may cause dirt inside.
If you use an eraser to remove stains from the core, it will be relatively easy to remove the stains. Rub in a direction perpendicular to the wood grain, as rubbing along the wood grain may spread the stain.
It may break if dropped or subjected to strong force.
The lid is designed to fit lightly over the main body. When lifting, be careful not to drop the main unit.
The blade part has a safe structure that cannot be touched directly, but the blade is extremely sharp and it is dangerous to remove it intentionally.
Do not place it in direct sunlight, high temperatures, or humid locations. This may cause discoloration, deformation, or mold.
Please keep out of reach of children.
