Silver Tong Tool Can Grasp Olives?

Click For Summary
A customer expressed a desire for silver tongs with rounded ends, reminiscent of small teaspoons, which she purchased in California around 2004/2005. These tongs are useful for serving crudités and olives. The original poster, who started in 2008, has never seen these tongs and is seeking information on their name and availability. There is speculation that they may have been discontinued, and users are encouraged to check outlets for restocks. Some community members offer their unused tongs for sale and suggest checking platforms like eBay for availability. The discussion highlights the rarity of these items and the hope of finding more for interested customers.

I had a customer at yesterday's show, bring me a silver tong with rounded ends - looked like small teaspoons. She said she bought it when she lived in California in 2004/2005. She loves it and said she uses it alot for crudite' trays and it is useful for grabbing olives etc.....She wants 6 more. I started in early 2008 and have never seen this. Does anyone know what it is called and does anyone have any?
 
Those are the old small tongs. I don't have any except the ones I actually use. Sorry.

Thanks for all your help. She seems like a new good customer and I hope I can help her find these.
 
I have 2 in my drawer that I never use and 2 of the larger version - one in package - if you are interested in them. The open ones are all "like new".
 
also check E-bay.
