Why Chopsticks?

In their early history, Japanese chopsticks provided a bridge between the human and the divine. Rather than for taking ordinary meals, they were used, at first, for sharing food with the gods. It was believed that when a pair of chopsticks was offered to a deity, the chopsticks became inhabited by that deity. When those chopsticks were used to eat the food that was offered along with them, mortal and immortal dined together.

Chopsticks master, Master Shifu.

Design

With the highest attention to craftsmanship, the sticks and tray were curated by Caliper, a studio specialising in industrial design development, kinetic art fabrication, and homeware manufacturing.

Focusing on the core use of chopsticks and specifically Japanese heritage while considering the singularity of what chopsticks embody. The design considers how Japanese chopsticks are tapered along their length, used daily, and are an object of significance.

Made from bead-blasted anodised aluminium, Caliper present these chopsticks as an artefact of SushiSwap’s history, available in two colour-ways: sushi-sunset blue, and sushi-sunset pink.
