Turn 'Long Time No See' Smiles into Lifelong Keepsakes. The Magic of 'Teddy Bear x Premium Celebratory Chopsticks' to Brighten the Daily Lives of Parents and Grandparents for Golden Week Homecomings, Mother's Day, and Father's Day.

Petit Loup Co., Ltd. (Location: Izumisano City, Osaka Prefecture; Representative Director and President: Kota Osada), which plans, manufactures, and sells original plush toys, is proposing the "Longevity Celebration Chopsticks Gift Set," ideal for longevity celebrations, ahead of the Golden Week homecoming season, Mother's Day, and Father's Day.

This series, launched in 2025, combines teddy bears wearing chanchanko vests symbolizing various milestones such as 60th birthday (red), 70th birthday (purple), and 88th birthday (yellow), with "celebratory chopsticks" handcrafted by Japanese artisans. It has received widespread support for being "not just a keepsake, but something usable every day."

For parents and grandparents living apart. A special gift to hand over on the day you meet.

Many people will be returning to their hometowns for Golden Week this year after a long time. Also, May brings "Mother's Day" and June brings "Father's Day," a series of events to express gratitude to parents. "I don't know what would make them happy," "Formal celebrations feel awkward"... Petit Loup's teddy bear gifts solve such dilemmas.

Why is a set of "celebratory chopsticks" so appreciated? Three profound meanings.

Since ancient times, chopsticks have been treasured as auspicious items. By pairing them with a teddy bear, their meaning becomes even deeper.

・ "Hashi" (Chopsticks) Connects to "Issho" (Lifetime) and "Hashi" (Bridge)

The reading of chopsticks, "hashi," is likened to a "bridge" that connects happiness in life. From this, the meaning of "a bridge to a healthy lifetime" has been imbued. Beyond the wish for "never lacking food throughout life," it also carries the meaning of "bridging" to new happiness beyond life's milestones, making it perfect for longevity celebrations.

・ The Ultimate Thoughtfulness: "Eat well and stay healthy." Chopsticks are a "symbol of daily life," used every morning, noon, and night. Gifting good chopsticks is a message of care for the recipient's diet, and by extension, their health.

・ Balancing "Healing (Memory)" and "Practicality (Daily Life)" The teddy bear serves as a "keepsake that preserves the day's emotions." The chopsticks serve as a "tool that supports future health." When these two are combined, the warm feelings of the giver are conveyed every time they are used and seen.
