This is the official e-commerce website of Nihonbashi Saruya, a 300-year-old yoji (toothpick) workshop with a long history located in Nihonbashi, Tokyo, Japan. Founded during the Hōei era of the Edo period, it is a traditional Japanese handcrafted workshop that has been passed down to the present day. The official website serves both as a brand introduction platform and an online store.
Its core business is selling handcrafted kurobunji yoji products, covering categories including basic regular models, fine craft models, zodiac limited-edition models, custom engraved models, gift sets, and IP collaboration products. It also sells complementary peripheral goods such as yoji containers and kurobunji liqueur. All yoji are made from traditional premium kurobunji wood, crafted by hand by experienced artisans. With a daily output of only around 400 pieces, the craft is quite rare.
Pricing is set per individual item. Basic models mostly range from 660 to 1870 yen, while custom sets and collaboration products fall between 2000 and 7700 yen, which aligns with the standard pricing for traditional Japanese handicrafts.
Advantages include the brand's extremely long heritage, the high cultural value of its handcrafted techniques, products that cover multiple scenarios from daily use, business gifts, holiday souvenirs to collection, and complete brand storytelling that clearly conveys the cultural value of the products. Disadvantages are that the website only offers a Japanese interface, making it far less friendly for non-Japanese users; popular products are often out of stock with unstable inventory; and there is currently no clear support for shipping to China.
It is suitable for users who love traditional Japanese handicrafts and need to purchase distinctive Japanese souvenirs or gifts, as well as for local Japanese food service businesses sourcing premium tableware for guests. Chinese users can access the website directly.
