Therefore, please do not use them as tableware. For decorative plates and ornaments, place them in a safe and stable location. When storing (especially items containing gold or silver), gently wipe the surface with a soft cloth to remove any dirt before carefully putting them away. ※Tableware Do not microwave or heat tableware containing gold or silver in ovens, as it may cause surface discoloration and pose a fire risk. Thin teacups and yunomi (tea cups) conduct heat easily, so be cautious of burns when handling. Tableware made of mixed materials (e.g., ceramic mixed with metal or glass) are assembled with adhesives. Do not heat them directly over an open flame, induction cooker, or in an oven. Do not place them in a dishwasher. Earthenware is highly absorbent. Before use, soak it in hot water to allow the clay to absorb moisture. This will help prevent the pottery from staining or absorbing odors from tea. Wash promptly after use. Avoid using harsh detergents, abrasive scrubbers, or stiff brushes. Do not use a dishwasher, as it can damage the surface of the tableware. Use kitchen-specific detergents and a soft sponge for cleaning. Dry thoroughly with a kitchen towel before storing. ※Scratch Warning The bottom of Kutani ware ceramics is unglazed. Therefore, if placed on finished floors, flower stands, shelves, or tables, it may scratch the surface. Always use a coaster or a cloth pad. These pieces are worthy of appreciation as works of art, showcasing the artisan's dedication. Using them in daily life brings joy and enriches the spirit!
