Frequently Asked Questions
What should you know about handcrafted products?
All our products are handmade by experienced artisans, one piece at a time, making each piece unique. Due to this process, slight variations in colour, shape or size are inevitable and should be celebrated as a mark of the artist’s hand.
Small irregularities in the rims, texture, or surface do not destabilise them. We recommend you to add a placemat to help them sit flat across the table and also to protect the table.
How do I care for my wooden serveware?
Wood items are not heat resistant so please don’t put them in microwave or oven.
Wood items should only be cleaned by hand. Do not use any harsh abrasive soap or scrubber. Use damp cloth to clean only.
Do not soak them in water for long. Before storing, make sure to wipe off all the water and let them dry thoroughly.
We have also added care instructions for each of our products in the products tab. Please read through that carefully.

What is the difference between earthenware and stoneware?
Both earthenware and stoneware fall under ceramics. Earthenware is fired at lower temperature than stoneware.
Stoneware is a sturdier alternative. It is fired at a higher temperature with glass mixed into the clay, making it strong and chip-resistant. Stoneware also has a thicker build than earthenware, lending a humble charm.
