Eating and drinking from gold and silver vessels is prohibited. This prohibition includes all vessels and utensils used for this purpose, and it is a ruling agreed upon by consensus for both men and women. An exception is made for mending a broken vessel with a small amount of silver if there is a need. As for using gold and silver vessels for purposes other than eating and drinking, the majority of jurists are of the opinion that it is prohibited. It is permissible to use kitchen utensils made of steel, copper, wood, glass, and other materials, with the exception of gold and silver.
