In 2003 I was studying in China and noticed the vast amount of disposable chopsticks that are thrown out. Billions of single-use chopsticks are consumed annually. Even more shocking is the estimated 25 million trees and bamboo plants used every year to make these chopsticks. A seed was born and a year later, after countless hours of experiments, Chopstick Baskets were born.
We begin by collecting post-use, single-use bamboo chopsticks from restaurants. Next we sanitize the chopsticks at extremely high temperature. The chopsticks are sorted, colored(some using natural plant dyes), and then assembled into baskets.
The future of single-use chopsticks and their impact on the world’s forests is unknown. We genuinely hope that increased awareness and heightened preservation will eliminate the use of disposable chopsticks. Until then, Chopstick Art will continue to provide well-designed products of enduring quality and ecological significance for you to enjoy.
