Chopsticks are usually an afterthought at the Western table, a loose bamboo pair rattling in a drawer. Casa Bugatti treats them as flatware, made with the same 18/10 stainless steel and colored resin handles as our place settings, from a house that has been designing for the table since 1923.

Three families make up the collection. Allegra is the everyday line, with bright acrylic handles in a wide run of colors, sold as a pair, a set for one or a set for two, with matching chopstick rests. Oxford Antique and Optical Antique bring the pearlescent handles of our formal flatware to the chopstick, finished with an antique-silver ring. The result is a designer chopsticks set that belongs beside a full place setting.

Every set arrives gift-boxed, so when you want a chopsticks gift set with more presence than the usual lacquered pair, these luxury chopsticks settle the question. Because they belong to our flatware lines, they are made to order in Italy and ship in about four weeks, in the exact color you chose. Hand wash the pearlescent handles to keep them luminous, and they will outlast every other pair in the house.
