Questions
Questions about tableware.
Can I buy Kintsugi pieces one at a time?
Yes. Every piece is sold on its own, and the full set is available too.
How do I care for the brass chopsticks?
Wash them by hand and dry them straight away. Brass takes on its own colour with use; a brass polish brings back the shine if you want it.
How do I prepare the walnut utensils?
Before first use, soak them in warm salt water for about an hour, then let them dry in a well-ventilated place.
How do I clean the mortar?
Hand wash only, then dry it with a soft cloth.
