Why hammered iron
The pan restaurant cooks trust, sized for home.
Real wok hei
Thin iron heats fast and takes serious heat, so food sears and chars instead of stewing.
Hammered surface
The dimpled finish helps food release and holds cooked pieces up the sides while you sear the next batch.
No synthetic coating
Nothing to scratch or flake. You build a natural nonstick layer with oil and heat.
Every stove
A flat base sits steady on gas, electric, ceramic and induction cooktops.
How it compares

Arrives perfect
Damaged or defective on arrival? We replace or refund, no return needed.
Does it work on induction?
Yes. The wok has a flat base and the manufacturer rates it for induction, as well as gas, electric and ceramic cooktops.
Is it pre-seasoned?
It ships with a light protective oil. Seasoning takes about 15 minutes and our step-by-step guide walks you through it.
What size is it?
32 cm (12.6") across and 9.5 cm (3.7") deep, enough for a stir-fry for 2–4 people.
Will it rust?
Bare iron can rust if left wet. Dry it on the heat and wipe with a drop of oil after washing. If a spot appears, scrub it off and re-oil. It's easy to fix.
Where is it made and how long is shipping?
Our woks are made in China by a partner workshop in Zhejiang and ship free with tracking, usually in 7–15 business days.
What if I don't like it?
Changed your mind? Return it unused within 14 days of delivery (return shipping is on you). If it arrives damaged or defective, tell us within 14 days with a photo and we replace or refund it, no return needed.
