Forged Metal Chopstick Rest
Our Forged Metal Chopstick Rest is cast in solid stainless steel and finished with a smoke grey Chef's Bright coating. It was originally molded from a piece of forged brass.
It adds subtle beauty to your tabletop.
Each rest has a hole on the bottom of the piece that is used in the coating process.
Care Instructions
Developed to withstand the rigors of commercial use. Home and commercial dishwashers will not affect finish. If you choose to hand wash, follow with towel drying to avoid water spots. A nylon brush can be used. Never use steel wool.
Chef’s Bright does not need polishing. Do not put in the microwave. Oven safe to 400°F.
Coating
It begins with a high phosphorus electroless nickel base coat that forms a strong, reliable bond to the softer aluminum. Then a layer of titanium nitride is applied via physical vapor deposition (PVD). This advanced nanotechnology creates a food-safe, hypoallergenic exterior that does not tarnish or oxidize, resists scratches and holds its color and luster.
The casting and technical coatings are done by factory partners located within a 75 mile radius of Artifaqt that we have worked with since 2012.
