Orange \u0026amp; Lime is close behind and feels more summery. Blue \u0026amp; Orange has the strongest contrast between its two main colors, so it pops from a distance.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eWill the stripes wear off with cleaning?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eNo, the stripes are the glass itself, so alcohol, salt and pipe cleaners won't fade or scratch them away.

It's comfortable on the lips and gives the 5 inch spoon a balanced shape. The head is round as well, so there are no sharp edges on either end.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eHow long is this striped spoon?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eIt's 5 inches from the mouthpiece to the back of the head.
