[Nothyang] Traditional Korean Brass Chopstick Set (Classic Design)


Yugi - aka Korean brassware - is back in vogue.

Traditionally, every household in Korea owned a complete set of brassware. From tableware to cutlery, brass was the material of choice for its superb quality, beautiful luster and delicacy. In the old days, Koreans used porcelain bowls during the summer to add lightness and freshness to the table. But during the winter, it was swapped out with brassware. It's shiny, golden color makes food look more appetizing. And it retains heat better - preventing foods from getting cold.

After the Korean war, the era of consumer plastic ushered in and the majority of brassware factories went bankrupt. The few that survived kept the craft alive and still produce brassware in the traditional way. 

Nothyang is famous for its modern take on traditional Korean Yugi.

Today, we feature their beautifully designed Classic spoon and chopstick set.

Both utensils are made from the traditional bangjja method - which involves heating lumps of brass and beating them with hammers. Bangjja brassware is also made with precisely 78% Copper and 22% Tin. This ratio creates a type of brassware that is strong and does not bend or break easily. You'll notice the premium quality once it's in your hands.

Nothyang was distinguished as the #1 Top Winner in "2020 Korea Best Brands" for Yugi Brassware. They are a premium Yugi brand from Korea and their products have even featured in mega-hit Korean Netflix/TV series like Itaewon Class, Private Lives (사생활) and 2 Days & 1 Night (2박1일).

If you're interested in traditional Korean tableware, start with this! It also makes for a beautiful, memorable gift!

Perfect traditional Korean Brass Chopstick set

I was looking to buy this handcrafted traditional Korean Brass Chopstick set and I was really happy to finding out that Gochujar ship to Lithuania. Ordering process was perfectly smooth and the delivery was very fast. The spoons and chopsticks are very comfortable to handle, very elegant and look especially luxurious. I am really happy with the quality as I use it everyday.
Looking forward to ordering more kitchenware. Thank you, Gochujar,

Great Quality

^ they're a bit heavier than the wooden chopsticks i'm used to, but the weight feels nice and honestly makes using them and balancing food effortless. easy to clean and they look beautiful on the table.

Magnificent

I received it quite rapidly considering it comes from Korea and I live in France. I can't wait to offer it to my sister (who loves Korean food) for her birthday. I know it will be a success. I actually might buy one set for me now. Love it.

PRODUCT NOTICE (READ)

1. Each piece is handmade - not identical

Nothyang makes their Yugi piece by hand (i.e. not bulk made in large-scale factories). 

As a result, there may be subtle differences in size and look (i.e. minor scratches/blemishes/stains).

Note: These minor imperfections do not qualify as "damaged' item.

2. DOn't use stainless steel scrubbers/wool

Instead, use the regular 3M Dishwashing Sponges (use the dark-green, coarse side)

3. SOAK IN VINEGAR BEFORE FIRST USE!

Before first use, soak the Yugi ware in lukewarm water - with a touch of vinegar.

How much? Use a ratio of 2 Cups Water to 1 Tablespoon Vinegar.

Soak for 30 mins - 1 hour (not any longer - set a timer).

Then rinse it off again with soap & water. Then dry-off thoroughly with a towel.
