    Bought this on eBay this week. Arrived express all the way from Osaka...

    I don't believe them to be of any great age, but I do like the fact that they are silver.

    Does anybody recognise the STAR mark with the "S" inside it?

    Along with the box, it also came with a leaflet, but since I don't read Japanese, that's not really of any help. Does anybody here read (and translate?) Japanese?

    I think they're quite cute, yes! I love the little apple-thingies on top.

    I just hope that there's someone here who can translate Japanese? Once I find someone, I'll post the leaflet-thingy that came with it.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    I don't know anybody who speaks Japanese, or of any online resources. It's irritating.

    I bought these because...1...they were cheap. And 2. they were marked.

    I've seen LOADS of "silver" chopsticks on eBay all purporting to be 925, 900, 800, 999...whatever...but they're never marked. And I don't like getting burned.
