Know before you buy
Yes, the horn trim is securely attached and designed for standard bar use. However, because horn is a natural material, it should be hand-washed and kept away from extreme heat or prolonged submersion to maintain its integrity.
The circular, slotted design is specifically engineered to provide a stable, non-slip grip on ice. The slots allow any excess meltwater to drain away, ensuring you can transfer cubes from the bucket to your glass without them sliding out.
We recommend hand-washing these tongs with mild soap and warm water. Dry them immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots on the stainless steel and to keep the brass finish looking polished.
At 7 inches in length, these tongs are sized for standard home bar ice buckets and cocktail service. They offer a comfortable reach for most tabletop vessels, though they may be short for very deep, commercial-style ice bins.
While designed primarily for ice, the stainless steel construction and secure grip make them suitable for serving garnishes like citrus slices, olives, or sugar cubes. Avoid using them with acidic foods for extended periods to protect the brass and horn accents.
