{"product_id":"mwiko-giraffe-salad-tongs","title":"Mwiko Giraffe Salad-Tongs","description":"These wooden salad tongs would be called mwikos in Kenya. They are lightweight and long lastiing. Most mwikos last roughly ten years. They were hand-carved by one of our suppliers in the Jumuiya (Eastern) region of Africa. These tongs are 100% biodegradable. They will easily be part of your kitchen for a decade and will help you create treasured memories. You can use this particular design for cooking and serving food, all year round. Some basic care instructions: Handwash and coat it in cooking oil twice a year. If they begin to fall apart, sand them down, then wash and oil again. They should turn into thin sticks of wood that you can throw into a fire ten years or more later. Make them yours today or gift them to a loved one. Measurements: 11 1\/2\" long and 3 3\/4\" at the widest point (the scooping area). The scoop is also 5\" long. The widest portion of the handle is 1\" wide while the handle itself is 1\/2\" thick. The mwikos are a mix of brown and darker-toned wood. They are hand painted with non-toxic paint and not dyed. They are not glazed with any chemicals.","brand":"Shoptiques | Shop Local Boutiques","offers":[{"title":"Brown \/ ML","offer_id":43641069731882,"sku":"sku-49994985668919","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/9494\/3530\/files\/the_empowerment_initiative-mwiko-giraffe-salad-tongs-1-brown-b6b7cb8c.jpg?v=1758341615","url":"https:\/\/divinerisenow.myshopify.com\/products\/mwiko-giraffe-salad-tongs","provider":"Divine Rise Now","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
