Elegance Silver Silver Plated Sugar Tongs, 4-1/2"

Let us get the obvious out of the way, I chose twosome instead of pair for alliteration purposes in the headline of this review. There are not two pairs included, a twosome can mean a pair, and a pair of tongs is one object. Anyways, these tongs are perfect, I have been looking to add a pair of sugar lump tongs to my personal absinthe set, and now I have finally gotten around to ordering them, I used them when preparing myself an absinthe-drip for a nightcap, { just a scant hour before writing this particular review, no less} , and they worked perfectly. They are just the right size, they pick up the sugar lumps I use { standard grocer sizes and types, sometimes plain white sugar, sometimes demerara sugar lumps } , the work well, and they don't crush the sugar lump, nor drop it unexpectedly where you don't want it. The design is simple, and the little bit of ornamentation and decoration is just the right amount to be pleasing, while not taking a penny away from the items functionality. It looks very nice with my absinthe set, and I am very much pleased not only with its form, but its function as well.

Very sweet looking. Just the ice claw that I wanted to go with a crystal ice bowl.

Great choice for what I needed. Be sure to check the size of them because I ordered several and they ranged from 6 inches to 14 inches which were way too big for table serving utensil. Overall quality is good and good value.

Lovely little appetizer tongs! They're hardly a fine piece of silver, but You get what you pay for. There are certainly adequate for An elegant serving piece at any party . They are a bit overpriced but There's nothing else out there of this quality in a reasonable price range. I will no doubt order another pair!

These little tongs are perfect for my candy bar. After reading some reviews I thought these tongs might be a little flimsy or cheap looking, but they're not. They're actually pretty heavy and bounce back to their open position very well, every time. I have other cheap tongs that are so thin that I've cut myself on the edge while washing them. These tongs are much thicker with smooth edges and the design on the handle is tasteful...not too ornate. I would definitely recommend these tongs.

these were purchased to use not for display .they work very well with small sugar cubes .if you are looking for something to display you are going to have to spend more money .they are worth the small price .

Found an crystal ice bucket in a thrift shop, but it needed ice tongs. These were perfect, and the ice bucket looks like an expensive purchase, with the ice tongs hanging on the edge. Looks great!

I do an annual ladies tea each year. I have a sugar bowl with sugar cubes, so I needed small silver tongs This table setting is formal and so I needed it to look nice.. These are the perfect size.

It made a great gift for my daughter in law as she likes to host afternoon tea!!

Muy lindas y bien envueltas

(Very small, definitely for sugar cubes only) This was part of my first review and since I am very fair person I decided to edit/change my first review. After using this little sugar tong a few times I realized that it actually adds some sort of elegance to my tea time. My family is pleased with it so I decided to go ahead and purchase another one. Quality is also good.

So shiny, the perfect size and nice and durable. I was worried about them looking cheap - but they totally don't and completely go with my expensive silver tea set!

Just exactly what I wanted. Well packaged and beautiful.
