Colourful earthenware ceramics are not only beautiful additions to your tableware collection but also versatile in their functionality. With the convenience of being dishwasher and microwave safe, caring for them is a breeze. In this blog post, we'll walk you through the essential steps to keep your Rose Balimba ceramics looking their best while maintaining their durability and longevity.

1. Dishwasher Care:

• Use a Gentle Cycle: When placing your colourful ceramics in the dishwasher, opt for a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the glaze and surface of the ceramics.

• Load with Care: Place your ceramics securely in the dishwasher, ensuring that they are not overcrowded or touching other items. This prevents chipping or breakage during the wash cycle.

• Avoid Extreme Temperatures: While our ceramics can withstand dishwasher temperatures, it's best to avoid sudden temperature changes. Allow your ceramics to cool down gradually after the dishwasher cycle to prevent thermal shock.

2. Microwave Care:

• Safe for Heating: Rose Balimba ceramics are microwave safe, allowing you to conveniently heat up your favorite dishes. Place your ceramic items in the microwave with confidence, knowing that they can withstand the heat.

• Use Microwave-Safe Covers: When reheating food in our ceramics, use microwave-safe covers or lids to prevent splatters and maintain moisture levels. This also helps to evenly distribute heat for thorough reheating.

• Monitor Heating Time: While earthenware ceramics are microwave safe, it's essential to monitor heating times to prevent overheating. Use short intervals and check the temperature of your food regularly to avoid damage to the ceramics or overheating of the contents.

General Care Tips:

• Avoid Sudden Temperature Changes: Whether using the dishwasher or microwave, avoid subjecting your colourful plates to sudden temperature changes. Allow them to adjust gradually to prevent thermal shock, which can lead to cracking or breakage.

• Handle with Care: While earthenware ceramics are durable, they can still chip or break if mishandled. Handle them with care when loading them into the dishwasher or removing them from the microwave to prevent accidents.

• Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect your earthenware ceramics for any signs of damage, such as chips or cracks. If you notice any issues, discontinue use to prevent further damage and ensure your safety.

By following these simple care tips, you can enjoy the beauty and functionality of your beautiful colourful ceramics for years to come. Whether you're serving up a feast or reheating leftovers, your ceramics will be ready to shine in both the dishwasher and microwave, adding a touch of charm to every meal. Don't have any yet ?
