This unique olive wood serving tong set serves two functions—use it as a wooden spatula when cooking or as a set to add warmth and style to your dining room table or kitchen counter buffet. Handcarved in Nairobi, Kenya, out of solid olive wood and finished with two drilled holes for easy storing and display.
Details:
- Because they are handmade, variances are to be expected and relished as unique finds
- Each set includes two tongs
- This set measures approximately 12 inches in length and the tongs are 2.5 inches wide
- Handwash only and air dry
- Maintain the vibrancy of the wood by seasoning with food grade oil
- Olive wood utensils need oiling from time to time; grape seed oil is one of the best because it has no taste and smell but any cooking oil can be used
-
Use a lint-free cloth or soft kitchen towel, gently rub the oil over the whole surface and leave to dry
- Made in partnership with Mikono, a Nairobi-based refugee crafts shop that supports artisans across Africa in resettlement, repatriation, and integration so that they can become self-reliant
