Caring for handmade porcelain:

  • All products are dishwasher safe, though hand washing will lengthen their lifespan.
  • Avoid sudden heat-shock / changes in temperature.
  • Remove stains on un-glazed areas by scrubbing gently with baking soda and water.
  • Ceramics that have gold luster decorations should not go into a microwave or dishwasher.

Caring for porcelain lanterns:

  • To remove wax build up, fill lantern with warm soapy water. Remove softened wax with your fingers.
  • Remove black sooty flame marks with a damp soapy cloth.
  • Remove any stains by scrubbing gently with baking soda and water.
  • Avoid using sharp objects such as knives to clean your lantern.
