<Product Care>
*Soak the pottery in warm or cold water to moisten it before each use to prevent coffee and tea stains.
*If the pottery is soaked in water, brown spots may appear, or the dark color of the surface may be noticeable until it is dry. This is a characteristic of pottery and there is no necessary to worry about the use.
*Since pottery absorbs water, leaving it soaked in water after use can cause mold, stains, and odors. After use, wash off the stain as soon as possible with kitchen detergent, rinse well, and dry well to ensure long-lasting use.
*There is no problem using the microwave oven if you are only warming up food and drink. Please do not use the product over an open flame or in an oven, as this may cause the pottery to explode.
