Vintage Set of 7 Japanese Silver Bamboo Stem Figural Toothpicks in Original Box
These unique silver toothpicks belonged to my parents and were probably purchased when they lived in Japan in the 1950's. Each toothpick has a pocket clip on the back marked "SILVER" by indentation. The toothpick shafts have three raised rings along the top half resembling a bamboo stalk and measure about 3 inches long. Each one is topped with a unique and very detailed figure of Japanese culture including a sitting Buddha, zori sandal, teapot, paper lantern, pagoda, shrine, and wishing well. The tops measure from 3/8 inch to 1/2 inch wide. The original box has places for 8 toothpicks, so one of them is missing, but was probably misplaced long ago. They will be in their original box, padded and shipped in a box via your choice of two USPS options.
