Size M.
Presentation
The Ojue box has three independent compartments. You can stack them all up, or just use one or two of them, thanks to the adjustable band that holds the compartments together securely. Despite its slimness (only 5.5 cm (2.16") wide), it's big enough for a adult male appetite if you use all three compartments.
A pair of matching folding chopsticks (half black, half the main color of the box), which can be stored neatly on top of the upper compartment, is included.
The Designer's Words
To explain the thinking behind the Ojue box, here is a quote from the designer, Chiaki Murata:
Every day we carry books, files and cellphones in our bags vertically. Why not the same for a bento box? The Ojue lunch box can be carried easily in a vertical manner. It has a small footprint, and the independent compartments can be used and arranged in many ways, using the 'vertical flexibility' concept.
