Description

This oven mitt from the 2000s is marketed as 'The Amazing Orka (TM) Miracle Mitt' Silicone kitchen glove. It is a single mitten designed to withstand temperatures of up to 300 degrees centigrade, it is waterproof, non-slip and can be washed in a dishwasher. Silicone rubber has outstanding heat and flame resistance and is food safe, it can therefore be used in the oven. The sensuous feel of silicone means that the oven mitt is a delight to wear. The slightly transparent blue is an example of the grades of transparency in which the material can be produced. However, silicone rubber is expensive so such products are thus aimed at the luxury market. This product was distributed by Dexam International Ltd.
