PRODUCT CARE

WOODEN ITEMS

It’s important to season your bowl before using it. Using a clean cloth, thoroughly coat the wood with the provided mineral oil and continue to season it every so often as needed. If it appears dull or feels dry to the touch, it needs seasoning. Use warm water and mild soap to wash the surface and never put it in the dishwasher or let it soak (this prevents cracking and warping). Also, keep your bowl out of the microwave. Sanitizing your wooden bowl will help to control bacteria. Simply mix 1 part white vinegar with 5 parts water, wet the bowl thoroughly and leave it for several minutes. Rinse the bowl with warm water and let it air dry.

BRASS ITEMS

Our brass jewelry is made from 100% upcycled brass. Brass is known for its bright lustre and golden gleam; however, over time brass can begin to appear dull and tarnished and therefore needs to be properly cared for to maintain its look.

To clean your brass jewelry, simply take a small amount of tomato ketchup or toothpaste and gently rub onto the surface with a soft cloth. Rinse with warm water and dry jewelry thoroughly.

CERAMICS + POTTERY

Our ceramics are not dishwasher safe. Hand Wash with warm water.

TEXTILES

Dry clean or hand wash in cold water. Spot clean with a mild natural soap and cold water.
