This is a scissor server (scissor-shaped tongs) made by Arte in Olivo in Italy.
They are very useful as they allow you to grip the ingredients more stably without using more force than regular V-shaped tongs. It's a convenient item not only for serving food, but also for grabbing hot boiled vegetables and freshly baked bread. The more you use it, the more you will love it.
Just as no two pieces of wood have the same shape, each piece of wood has a different grain. You can enjoy the charm that tools made with uniform molds do not have. Olive has a distinctive wood grain that gives it a unique and special feel. Recommended for those who want something unique and are not satisfied with ordinary items. Just by placing it on your dining table, the high quality natural feel of olive wood will add to your Italian kitchen style.
Material: Olive wood/Size: Total length approx. 28cm, tip width approx. 4cm, handle width approx. 8cm (closed)
100% pure Italian made from Italian olive wood processed by Italian craftsmen. The wood of olive wood is hard, dense, and has a high oil content, so it is said that the smell and color of ingredients are not easily transferred to it, and it is also resistant to scratches. The intricate growth rings and unique, strong grain give it a natural olive feel. To prevent cracks from drying out on the surface, periodically rub it with cooking oil (or olive oil) and wipe it off before storing. I think the wood grain on the surface will return and you will be able to use it for a long time. *Please avoid using the dishwasher. *As it is made from natural materials and handmade, the grain and color of each item may vary. Due to the characteristics of the material, there may be some joints, but please understand that it has a strong visual impact and the unique taste of olives.
