DescriptionChopstick; Two pairs of souvenir chopsticks, a longer pair (a) and a shorter pair (b). Each chopstick is square in cross-section and tapers gradually to the tip. Each chopstick is dark brown or black with red edges. Each pair of chopsticks is taped together with two pieces of white tape with Japanese characters that read "Special Wajima Chopsticks" on it. The chopsticks were originally stored in a white box in a silver holder with a pink ribbon stapled to hold the sticks in place.On View
