日常保養

  • 請使用柔軟海綿進行清潔，避免使用鋼絲刷等鋒利工具刮洗表面。
  • 若有卡色污漬，請將器皿放入溫熱水中，加入適量過碳酸鈉並浸泡半小時，再以柔軟的海綿輕刷即可。

使用須知

  • 可安全用於微波爐加熱。
  • 請勿將陶瓷器皿放置於直火或極熱環境中，避免因溫差過大而破裂。
  • 較薄的手工陶瓷建議手洗，避免使用洗碗機。

開片釉的照護

開片，又稱「冰裂」、「釉裂」，是指陶瓷器在釉藥層的裂紋，是在燒製的冷卻過程中，釉藥層和土坏層收縮率不同所導致的。因為這樣的裂痕只出現在釉藥層，並不是真的裂穿，因此不影響使用。在承裝深色液體之後，顏色會卡進裂紋中，裂紋會變得更明顯。如果不希望出現深色裂紋的情況，可以在第一次使用之前用澱粉填補裂紋，詳細步驟如下：

  1. 準備一個比陶瓷器大的鍋子，加入約6至7分滿的水，並加入一小把白米，或者直接使用洗米水。
  2. 將陶瓷器放入米水中，確保米水完全覆蓋陶瓷器，然後用小火慢慢煮沸約30分鐘。注意不要讓水滾得太激烈，以免陶瓷器碰撞而損壞。
  3. 關火後，讓陶瓷器在鍋內自然冷卻。待完全冷卻後，用冷水沖洗並擦乾，或直接自然陰乾即可。

Daily Maintenance

  • Use a soft sponge for cleaning. Avoid sharp tools like steel wool, which can scratch the surface.
  • For tough stains or discoloration, soak the item in warm water with sodium percarbonate for about 30 minutes, then gently scrub with a soft sponge.

Usage Instructions

  • This product is microwave-safe.
  • Avoid drastic temperature changes. Placing ceramics over an open flame can cause them to crack.
  • We recommend hand-washing thin, handmade ceramics instead of using a dishwasher.

Care Instructions for Crazing

Crazing, sometimes referred to as “ice cracks” or “glaze cracks,” is the beautiful network of fine lines that appears on the glaze surface of ceramics. This happens naturally during the cooling process due to the slight difference in the shrinkage rate between the clay body and the glaze.

These lines are only superficial and do not affect the integrity or functionality of the piece.

You may notice that crazing becomes more prominent over time, particularly after holding colored or dark liquids, as the pigments settle into the lines.

If you prefer to prevent the crazing lines from darkening, you can perform a simple starch treatment before the first use. Here are the steps:

  1. Find a pot larger than your ceramic piece. Fill it about two-thirds full of water and add a small handful of rice, or simply use rice-washing water (the starchy water left after washing rice).

  2. Place the ceramic piece into the rice water, ensuring it is fully submerged. Gently bring the water to a boil over low heat and simmer for about 30 minutes. Please ensure the water does not boil too vigorously to prevent the ceramic from knocking against the pot and getting damaged.

  3. Turn off the heat and allow the ceramic piece to cool naturally within the pot. Once completely cool, rinse it with cold water and dry it, or allow it to air-dry naturally.
