Caring for Ceramic and Porcelain Tableware

Glazed ceramic and porcelain ask for very little, but hand-painted pieces deserve a gentler routine than everyday plates. This guide covers daily cleaning, what belongs in the dishwasher, and how to avoid the one thing that actually breaks fired clay: sudden temperature change.

Caring for Ceramic and Porcelain Tableware

How to care

Glazed ceramic and porcelain ask for very little, but hand-painted pieces deserve a gentler routine than everyday plates. This guide covers daily cleaning, what belongs in the dishwasher, and how to avoid the one thing that actually breaks fired clay: sudden temperature change.

Care steps

  1. Check for metallic trim or hand-painted decoration before the first wash.
  2. Plain glazed pieces go straight in the dishwasher.
  3. Hand-painted and metallic-rimmed pieces get a hand wash with mild detergent.
  4. Never move a piece straight from the freezer to a hot oven or hot liquid: this is what actually cracks fired clay.
  5. Store with a soft liner between stacked plates to prevent chipping.

Do

hand wash decorated and metallic-rimmed pieces, let hot pieces cool before rinsing in cold water, stack with a soft liner between plates.

Do not

microwave metallic trim, pour boiling liquid into a cold piece, or scrub with an abrasive pad.
