Red Cat Training Chopsticks — Ages 13+

A red cat with a yellow collar joins the upper ends of these melamine training chopsticks. The smiling face and raised paw carry the character above the matching red shafts, giving the utensil a strong color beside a bowl or plate. Recommended for beginners ages 13 and up, the pair measures 8¾ inches in overall height.

Use the chopsticks as a colorful part of a rice, noodle or mixed-dish setting. Red coordinates with dark bowls and patterned tableware, while a white plate gives the silhouette a lighter background. A red cat fork continues the character for courses eaten with a fork, or mix white and pink training chopsticks across the table for different color choices. A small rest beside each dish gives the chopsticks a place during pauses in the meal. After service, the dishwasher-safe pair can go into the dishwasher for cleaning.
