Care, Cleaning & Maintenance for Handmade Ceramic Mugs

Despite its delicate, artistic appearance, this stoneware is designed for robust daily use.

• Cleaning: It is 100% dishwasher safe. You can place it on the top or bottom rack with your standard detergent.

• Heating: It is completely microwave safe, making it incredibly convenient for reheating your coffee or brewing a quick cup of afternoon tea.

• Storage: Store in a dry cabinet. Because ceramic can chip if dropped against hard surfaces like granite or cast iron, handle it with reasonable care when loading and unloading your sink.
