How to Enjoy Handmade Crafts

＜Enjoy the Uniqueness＞

• Each piece is handcrafted by Japanese artisans, making every item unique in size, shape, color, and pattern. No two pieces are exactly alike.
  
• Embrace the distinctive features of handmade crafts, such as crazing (crackle-like patterns on the surface), pinholes (small holes), iron spots (black spots caused by oxidized iron particles), and glaze variations.
  
• Each time you use these unique and charming pieces, you'll find their distinct features even more endearing.

＜Enjoy the change＞

• Handmade crafts gradually change over time with daily use and care.
• These "nurtured pieces" offer a unique pleasure, allowing you to enjoy their natural change over months and years.

Care Instructions for Handmade Crafts

• If metal cutlery leaves marks, they can be removed by gently rubbing with a damp sponge and a powdered abrasive.
• Clean with water whenever possible.
• If detergent is needed, use mild dish soap and a soft sponge, ensuring thorough rinsing to remove all soap residue.
• Avoid soaking dishes to prevent stains and mold.
• After washing, dry with a clean cloth and allow to air-dry in a well-ventilated area.
