These wooden tongs are definitely in my own home. They’re my go-to in the kitchen; perfect for flipping anything on the hob, from veg to flatbreads. Practical, simple, and honestly just really good to use. And when they’re not in action, they sit in a jug on my worktop and look beautiful as a little decorative moment.

Handmade with a clean, uncomplicated design, they’re the kind of tool you reach for daily without even thinking about it.

They’re crafted by a team of six artisans who share a single workshop in the Marrakech medina — a space I return to time and time again. Their studio is an emporium of carved wooden pieces, each one shaped by hand and full of character.

A humble, useful piece but one that brings a little bit of Marrakech warmth into your kitchen.
