How to care for glass and ceramics – and preserve their look
Glass and ceramics are materials with a special lightness and tranquility. With the right care, they can last for many years without losing their appeal.
Gentle cleaning
Clean with lukewarm water and mild detergents. Use a soft cloth or sponge to avoid scratches.
Avoid this
Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive sponges, as they can damage the surface – especially on older or handmade items.
Dishwasher?
Many older pieces are best hand-washed to preserve their glaze and finish.
Good habits
Avoid large temperature differences, as this can cause the material to crack. For example, do not let cold glass meet boiling water.
With a calm and gentle approach, glass and ceramics will retain their clarity and character.
