Red Shippou Origami Baguettes

To hold the chopsticks, you use your thumb, index finger and middle finger to move the upper chopstick. The triangular section of these chopsticks fits perfectly in the hand.
At the same time, the tip of the chopstick evolves towards a square section to make it easier to pick up food. The shape is entirely designed to offer better ergonomics. This type of wand is also recommended for learning to master the gesture.

This Shippou pattern means “The Seven Treasures” in Japanese, it is a concept from Buddhism. It is made up of linked and connected circles, it is a symbol of harmony and human relationships. It is a historical pattern and one of the lucky patterns in Japan.
