CARE GUIDE
Taking good care of your belongings makes good sense. It prolongs their lifespan, which is good
for your finances as well as the planet. Follow our care guide and keep your things beautiful
and usable for many years to come.
PORCELAIN
Porcelain is a sturdy material burned at high temperatures. The higher the temperatures, the
sturdier it gets, and our porcelain is burned at very high temperatures above 1200° C. As long
as you take certain precautions, our porcelain is dishwasher, oven and microwave safe and can
also go in the freezer. However, you should not put porcelain into a preheated oven or directly
from a warm oven onto a cool tabletop. Big temperature differences might cause it to crack and
break, which is why it should always be heated up and cooled down slowly.
STAINLESS STEEL
Stainless steel is robust and easy to maintain. Rinse or wash it immediately after use to avoid
damage from acidic foods. Avoid soaking, as all steel, including stainless steel, can rust if
mistreated.
Our stainless steel products are dishwasher safe, but use chlorine-free detergent and rinse
aid from the same brand. Do not overload the dishwasher, and dry the items thoroughly after
washing to preserve their appearance.
Prevent “flash rust” by running regular dishwasher cleaning cycles and avoiding contact with
rusted items. Check the plastic coating on wire racks to prevent rust transfer.
Knives should be placed separately, as their blades are made from steel that is less rust-resistant.
SODA GLASS
Our soda glasses are easy to maintain and dishwasher safe. Wash them with dishes and cutlery at
temperatures below 55°C using a short programme. To prevent corrosion (glass disease), adjust
your dishwasher to your water hardness and dose detergent, salt, and rinse aid correctly. Store
glasses upright to allow them to breathe. A white coating may be lime deposits, removable with
citric acid. Add 50 grams to the detergent compartment and run a cycle.
