Billions of single-use chopsticks are consumed annually and an estimated 25 million trees and bamboo plants are used every year to make these chopsticks. Chopstick Art up-cycles discarded chopsticks to create unique and versatile folding baskets. 

Made of 30 pairs of chopsticks, the basket will hold around a dozen pieces of fruit. 

• Open size: length: 14in width: 12in height: 4in
• Material: Sanitized upcycled bamboo chopsticks 

The Process

Chopstick Art collects post-use, single-use bamboo chopsticks from restaurants.  Next they sanitize the chopsticks at extremely high temperature. The chopsticks are sorted, colored(tea stain and food coloring), and then assembled into artful folding baskets.
