Constructed using recycled bamboo chopsticks, these baskets have ample ventilation and a capacity to hold up to 15 pounds, making them perfect for storing fruits and veggies. They also make for a convenient bread basket.
This basket is made using 30 pairs of single-use chopsticks and can hold around a dozen pieces of fruit. All chopsticks are thoroughly sanitized before being assembled. Coloring is done with tea leaves, natural plant dyes, and food coloring. One of the coolest features is that they can be easily folded and stored when not in use! Wash with soap and water.
When open, the 30 pair basket measures approximately 14" x 12" x 4".
These are made to look very similar or identical. The item you are purchasing should look like the one shown in the picture(s).
About Chopstick Art
Adventurous, curious, and entrepreneurial, Bryan was an American living in China. While eating lunch with single-use chopsticks, Bryan asked his dining companion the question that would ultimately lead to his founding of Chopstick Art: How many chopsticks are thrown away every year in China?
The answer is startling. Billions of single-use chopsticks are consumed annually. Even more shocking is the estimated 25 million trees and bamboo plants used yearly to make these chopsticks. In this waste, Bryan saw an opportunity to upcycle the discarded chopsticks into a line of home accessory products.
Chopstick Art, based in Portland, Oregon, collects post-use, single-use bamboo chopsticks from restaurants and sanitizes them at extremely high temperatures. They're then sorted, colored, and assembled into repurposed decor for your home. These exquisite designs pair Eastern aesthetics with Western conservationism to complement any decor.
