This chopsticks souvenir features the "round sky and square earth" concept, with silver wrapping around the chopsticks, and ebony handles. This combination of simplicity and elegance enhances the utensils' style, perfectly blending comfort and aesthetics with sterile health, creating an exquisite living ambiance. Carefully selected elegant white porcelain, fired at high temperatures, is both lightweight and durable, resembling snow in its purity. The glaze is delicate, warm, and translucent, presenting a scenic view on the dining table.



Using relief printing techniques, the image of the Golden Pheasant is ingeniously combined with gold-stamped characters, whether used for hosting guests or given as gifts, it radiates a natural and generous charm. Each vegetable and grain holds its own unique flavor, and chopsticks, with a history of over 3000 years, were once referred to as "箸" or "梜". With the evolution of time and the pursuit of a high-quality life, these small chopsticks have connected various stages of life in China over thousands of years.



In ancient times, the gourd was used as a ladle, serving a functional purpose. Additionally, the gourd shares the same pronunciation as "福禄" (fortune and prosperity) and symbolizes wealth and auspiciousness, representing longevity and good fortune. Due to the sprawling vines and abundant fruiting of the gourd, it's also considered a symbol for praying for the well-being of future generations.
