Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Schott Zwiesel glasses, place them securely in the dishwasher away from other ceramics to prevent vibration-related impacts. While the glasses are highly durable, avoid high-temperature steam cycles if your dishwasher offers a 'delicate' or 'crystal' setting. For hand washing, use a mild, fragrance-free detergent and a soft microfibre cloth to polish the crystal immediately after rinsing to avoid water spots. When storing, upright placement is recommended to protect the delicate rim, and ensure they are spaced adequately to prevent the bowls from knocking against each other.
