Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)well, hard to say.first of all, this isn't for you if you have an electric stove.it just doesn't get hot enough.i even bought a second wok ring to lower it a bit and it still doesn't reach ideal heat.i'm not sure whether its' the cookware itself, or just the fact that it isn't made for an electric stove.i can tell you it is indeed hand hammered, all the pieces of the set came and were as expected.all in all it is a beautiful wok, just not sure it gets hot enough.oh, and don't try to contact the company thru the phone number they give in their instruction booklet, it's not even the right number and the people there acted like they thought i was crazy.not sure how that happens, but they give the wrong number in their own pamphlet.

Product Description:
To preserve the several thousand years old history of Chinese cooking, we have recreated cookware using traditional, hand-crafted methods. Each wok is unique, bearing the marks of artisans who have labored for hours hammering and shaping the high quality steel by hand.
This gift set represents some of the essential tools that have been used by every Chinese from restaurant to home cook for generation. We hope you will enjoy the vibrant and crisp flavors of Chinese cooking through the beauty and artistry of our cookware.
Our Unique Production Process
Our wok is unique as we employ the traditional wok-making method. In hours of deafening hammering and intense heat, a carbon steel disc undergoes constant rotation and hammering by the skillful hands of our wok craftsmen. The structure of the metal is gradually changed, giving it greater strength and durability.
The Reason for a Wok
The round bottom shape of a wok is the original design that has existed for two thousand years. The semi-spherical curve of the work offers maximum cooking surface and minimal fuel contact. The concave shape makes stirring easy as ingredients can be partially placed up on the sides without spilling. It is also ideal for deep-frying with minimum amounts of oil.
With proper care, a wok provides a natural non-stick surface and requires less oil for cooking. Carbon steel conducts heat efficiently. The wok heats up and cools down quickly and provides the cook with the maximum control over the fire.
What's Included
This gift set includes our signature 14" hand-hammered carbon steel wok, a hand-made bamboo steamer, a wok ring for kitchen without stove rack, a spatula for stir-frying, a ladle for handling the sauce, a pair of cooking chopsticks and a traditional bamboo brush for cleaning the wok after use. Also included are two booklets that tell you about the history of the wok and instructions for cleaning and cooking in the wok.
