Know before you buy
These tongs measure 3 3/4 inches in length, making them a compact and precise tool for serving sugar cubes.
Yes, they are crafted from durable sterling silver, which provides both the weight and luster expected of high-quality silver tableware.
To maintain their finish, hand wash the tongs with mild soap and warm water, then dry them immediately with a soft cloth. Avoid using a dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents can damage the silver.
While designed for sugar cubes, their size and grip make them excellent for serving small appetizers, garnishes, or cocktail olives.
As with all sterling silver, these tongs will naturally develop a patina or tarnish when exposed to air. Regular use and occasional polishing with a silver-safe cloth will help keep them looking bright.
