Notorious for engraving on non-traditional items, Scott Pilkington has created a new look for this pair of metal chopsticks. By adding simple scroll and leaves to these chopsticks, normal wooden chopsticks don't even come close to being this nice.

Regardless of what the final use for a piece is, whether it is a simple work of art or a tool that combines form and function, engraving on non-traditional surfaces can be great for experimentation.

Consider finding things around your house that could use a little extra beauty – but make sure to check with your spouse before engraving all the light switch plates or the bathroom faucet. Have a happy new year, and keep engraving!
