Due to clay shrinkage and glaze flow during firing, the actual product may not be exactly identical to the photos. The following are considered normal characteristics of handmade ceramics, not defects. Please confirm your acceptance before ordering: - **Variations in Form**: Due to hand-shaping and kiln shrinkage, the actual product dimensions may have an error of approximately **±1-1.5cm** compared to the photos, and the curves of the shape may also show slight differences. - **Glaze Effects**: Glazes naturally flow during firing, which can result in variations in luster, localized color spots, or pinholes. - **Natural Marks**: Occasional black spots (mineral inclusions in the clay), crazing (fine cracks in the glaze), granular texture, or staining marks may appear on the surface. - **Screen Color Differences**: Photos are affected by lighting and individual monitor settings. Please refer to the **actual product** for color and style. 𐃢𐃡 **【Usage and Care Recommendations】** To prolong the life and preserve the quality of your ceramic ware, we recommend the following: - **First Use**: It is recommended to soak the pottery in **rice water** for several hours. This helps to fill the pores and reduce water absorption. - **Microwave Heating**: Can be used in a microwave, but please **avoid empty heating** or **overheating for extended periods**. - **Cleaning and Maintenance**: **Dishwasher use is possible but not recommended**. Handwashing with a mild detergent and air drying is advised. - **No Direct Flame**: Do not use over an open flame. - **Temperature Shock**: Please avoid **sudden extreme temperature changes** (drastic hot and cold), to prevent cracking from thermal expansion and contraction. - **Natural Patina**: With prolonged use, white or light-colored ware may develop **crazing (fine glaze cracks)** and staining marks. These are natural signs of aging and use for ceramics and do not affect functionality.
