Bamboo Serving Chopsticks

Description

I am Long Bamboo Serving Chopsticks. The longer the sticks, the easier to reach the best pieces.

Curator’s Notes

When sharing meals the proper dining etiquette calls for communal serving utensils like serving ladles and tongs but every now and then you need something for food that is in small bite-size pieces and requires the intricacy of chopsticks. These chopsticks are longer and more ornate than personal ones, making it easy to have good manners while sharing dishes.
