This porcelain chopsticks set makes a great gift. Nestled in a Chinese silk gift box, the porcelain chopsticks are designed with Chinese calligraphy and come with matching rests. They are made of the famous blue and white porcelain that became popular during the Ming Dynasty. Chopsticks are 9.5" long and should be handwashed.

Chopsticks have long been a tradition in Asia, dating back thousands of years. Chopsticks are traditionally held in the right hand between the thumb and fingers. It is generally considered poor etiquette to gesture with chopsticks, move around dishes, or pierce food. Chopsticks should also not be left sticking straight up in a bowl of rice or other food as this resembles incense sticks used as offerings to deceased family members.
