The set was created to take away the inhibitions and connect the cultures. It is missing out on a fork and contains chopsticks instead. In that way, Europeans are forced to grapple with the use of foreign eating tools to be able to eat food from their own country. The knife and the chopsticks build a new entity. Also, the included chopsticks are shorter than common in China. They are not made for reaching out on shared plates on the table but for an intercultural eating experience with foreign European countries eating habits.
The main parts for eating are made out of ceramics. It builds a contrast to the bamboo handle that reflects the Asian culture. The knife resembles a flint stone, the beginning of the development of the cutting tool, and builds a connection to the history of the cutlery emergence. The spoon has a deeper bowl than usual European spoons and is oriented on the Chinese soup spoon. The chopsticks can be stored inside the bamboo stick. The set can be placed in a little bag made out of woven bamboo to make it portable.
