**【About the Product】** | Material | Imported American sculpting clay | Purpose | Incense holder / Desktop ornament | Dimensions | Diameter 9 × Height 6 cm (±2 cm) | Production Origin | Taiwan ※ Cleaning Recommendation: For any accumulated incense ash, gently brush it off with a dry cloth or rinse with clean water, then allow it to air dry completely. As the unglazed option has porous properties, please avoid contact with colored liquids to prevent staining. ※ Handmade Characteristics: Each incense holder is individually thrown on the wheel by hand. Therefore, unique variations in size, the curve of the pleats, and the distribution of clay color are to be expected. https://i.postimg.cc/FzMbfym2/Raorao-Studi-pinkoi-tu-(1).png **【About Handmade Ceramic Products】** Every piece is handcrafted, and due to the natural shrinkage of clay and the flow of glazes during firing, the actual item may not be perfectly identical to the photographs. The following are considered normal characteristics of handmade pottery, not defects. Please ensure you are comfortable with these before placing an order: - **Dimensional Variations**: Due to hand-shaping and kiln shrinkage, actual product dimensions may have an error of approximately **±1-1.5cm** compared to the photos, and the exterior curves may also show slight differences. - **Glaze Appearance**: Glazes naturally flow during the firing process, which can result in variations in luster, localized color spots, or pinholes. - **Natural Markings**: Occasional black spots (mineral inclusions in the clay), crazing (fine crackle lines), granular texture, or traces of dye may be present on the surface. - **Screen Color Discrepancy**: Photographs are influenced by lighting conditions and individual monitor settings. Please consider the **actual product**'s color and style as the final reference. 𐃢𐃡 **【Usage and Care Instructions】** To extend the lifespan and preserve the quality of your ceramic pieces, we recommend the following: - **First Use**: It is advisable to soak the pottery in **rice water** for several hours. This helps to fill the pores and reduce water absorption. - **Microwave Heating**: **Microwave safe**, but please avoid dry heating or prolonged overheating. - **Cleaning and Maintenance**: **Dishwasher safe**, though handwashing is recommended. If using a dishwasher, ensure the item is placed securely to prevent collisions. Gentle handwashing with mild detergent and air drying is generally preferred. - **No Open Flame**: Do not heat directly over an open flame. - **Temperature Shock**: Avoid **extreme temperature fluctuations** (sudden hot or cold changes) to prevent cracking due to thermal expansion and contraction. - **Natural Aging**: White or light-colored ware may develop **crazing (fine glaze cracks)** and subtle staining over time with use. These are considered natural signs of aging for ceramics and do not affect functionality. 𐃢𐃡 **【Shipping Packaging and Gift Box Service】** In support of environmental sustainability and to ensure safe transit, our products are typically shipped with protective tissue and honeycomb paper.
