Maintaining Your Tableware: Caring for Your Handcrafted Treasures

Caring for your tableware helps keep your cherished plates and bowls in beautiful condition, ensuring they last for years to come. Knowing how to clean and store them properly prevents chips, breaks, and damage. This guide offers practical advice on cleaning, storage, and glaze protection, keeping your tableware durable and lovely for generations.

Best Cleaning Methods for Your Handcrafted Plates and Bowls

Different materials require specific care to maintain their unique beauty. Here are our recommended cleaning tips for various types of tableware:

Dishwasher-safe and microwave-safe items: Always consult the artisan's mark or label first. Employing the correct cleaning method helps remove stains while protecting your tableware's integrity.

Cleaning tips:

• Use gentle cleaning products, free from bleach and harsh chemicals, to honour the materials and workmanship.
• Address stains promptly with mild stain removers, cherishing the beauty of your pieces.
• Avoid abrasive tools that can harm the glaze or delicate surfaces; instead, embrace gentle care.
• Soak dishes in warm, soapy water if marks prove stubborn, allowing a gentle release before washing.

Using proper cleaning methods allows your dinnerware to last longer while keeping them looking beautiful.

Proper Storage to Prevent Chipping and Breakage

The way you store your tableware is as vital as how you clean it. Follow these simple steps to prevent damage and cherish your handcrafted pieces:

• Stack carefully: avoid piling plates and bowls too high. Place soft cloths or felt between each item to prevent scratches and chips, ensuring each piece remains pristine.
• Use plate racks and bowl storage ideas: these tools help keep your tableware organised and secure, reducing the risk of accidental knocks and preserving their beauty.
• Cupboard organisation: Allow ample space between items. Overcrowding can lead to breakage, so give each piece the room it deserves.
• Handle with care: Support your plates and bowls firmly when storing or retrieving them, especially delicate pieces like fine china or porcelain, showing respect for their craftsmanship.

Good storage prevents chipping and breakage, preserving your collection of handcrafted treasures for years of joyful use.
