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.
DINNERWARE - STONEWARE & PORCELAIN
Stoneware and porcelain are sturdy materials burned at high temperatures. The higher the temperatures,
the sturdier it gets – and our stoneware and porcelain are burned at very high temperatures above 1200° C.
As long as you take certain precautions, our stoneware and porcelain are dishwasher, oven and microwave
safe and can also go in the freezer. But never put normal stoneware and 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.
PLACEMATS – LEATHER & SILICONE
Always remove spilled foods and fluids immediately, since they can cause stains. The place mats should
always be cleaned after use, which can easily be done with a damp cloth and some mild washing-up liquid.
Never put your place mats in the dishwasher and avoid contact with warm things such as pots and pans,
folding as well as prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Now and then the place mats can be rolled “the
opposite” way to make sure that they keep their completely flat shape.
