• Drastic temperature changes (from the refrigerator to the hot oven) may cause cracking. Room temperature to cool oven is best. Allow pottery to cool before placing in refrigerator or dishwasher.
• Do not broil or place on a stovetop burner. Do not store in freezer.
• Pottery can scratch furniture & cause water stains if placed directly on furniture surface. Use cork tabs or felt on the base of the pottery and/or a trivet or tablecloth to protect furniture.
• Do not leave pottery outdoors in winter – temperature fluctuations can crack pottery.
• Low quality cutlery can mark pottery; remove marks with a kitchen abrasive, like Bar Keeper’s Friend. High quality steel cutlery will not mark the pottery.
• Handcrafted pottery has slight variations in size, color & design, characteristics to be expected and treasured in handcrafted art.
• And yes, pottery will break if dropped!
