Description: Up for consideration is a pair of old antique Chinese chopsticks. The Red bone and silver pair were used at banquets and group dining. The story being told that during this time of upheaval , it is told that sometimes people were poisoned for one reason or another. The common belief was that the silver when highly polished would change color if coming in contact with poison. So carefully ,people would watch the tips of the chopsticks to see if there was a color change. Red is also one of the lucky primary colors in the Chinese culture. The second pair is all silver for the same purpose.
