These 23cm utensils provide a balanced, comfortable grip for daily dining, offering the natural beauty of pale maple wood with the added durability of an acrylic urethane coating. While they are engineered for convenience and dishwasher compatibility, users should note that the wood grain may vary slightly from piece to piece due to the natural material used.

FAQs
Can I use these for cooking in a hot pan?
While durable, they are designed for dining. Avoid using them directly on high-heat stovetops or in boiling oil to preserve the integrity of the coating.
Are these chopsticks suitable for children?
At 23cm, they are standard adult size. They may be too long for small children to maneuver comfortably.
Will the wood change color over time?
As with any natural maple wood product, some subtle darkening may occur over years of use, but the protective coating significantly slows this process.
Do I need to apply oil to the wood?
No. The acrylic urethane finish replaces the need for traditional food-safe mineral oils.
Are these chopsticks sold as a single pair or a set?
They are typically sold as a single pair of 23cm chopsticks.
Troubleshooting
Surface feels slightly sticky after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and that no soap residue remains on the chopsticks after the rinse cycle.
Chopsticks feel slippery when picking up food
The smooth finish is designed for hygiene; if you struggle with grip, ensure you are holding them at the wider, upper end rather than the tapered tips.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These chopsticks arrive ready for use immediately out of the packaging. No initial seasoning or oiling is required due to the protective urethane finish. To maintain the longevity of the chopsticks, while they are dishwasher safe, it is recommended to place them in the utensil basket and avoid cycles that use extremely high heat or abrasive detergents. If hand washing, use a mild dish soap and a soft sponge. Always ensure they are thoroughly dried before storing them in a closed drawer to prevent prolonged moisture exposure.
