Care

Treat each glass as a precise object. The cut holds light only while the surface stays clear.

What it is

Care, here, means washing, drying, and storing cut glass so the facets stay readable. These notes are house practice. Where a product page has a specific care line, that line takes priority.

How to do it

  • Wash by hand with a soft sponge and mild detergent.
  • Support the bowl. Do not wrench the rim against the sink.
  • Rinse in water that is warm, not sudden.
  • Dry with a soft cloth so water does not sit in the cut.
  • Store upright with space between pieces.

What to avoid

  • Abrasive pads and harsh cleaners on cut surfaces.
  • Sudden heat or cold, including a move from freezer to warm water.
  • Stacking glasses rim to rim.
  • Claims we have not verified for a SKU, including dishwasher-safe, microwave, and food-safe status. If a listing does not say it, do not assume it.
