Yes, the plates are oven safe, allowing you to warm dishes directly on them before serving.

What is the best way to clean these plates?

The plates are dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. Alternatively, they can be hand washed with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth.

Troubleshooting

Plate has a chip or crack.

Inspect the plate carefully. While designed for durability, extreme impacts can cause damage. For safety, discontinue use of any chipped or cracked plates.

Food residue is difficult to remove.

Ensure the plate is still within the dishwasher cycle or, if hand washing, use warm soapy water. For persistent residue, try soaking the plate in warm water for a short period before washing, or use a baking soda paste as described in the care instructions.

Plate appears dull after washing.

This may be due to hard water deposits. Try running the dishwasher with a rinse aid or vinegar, or hand wash with a mild descaling agent if necessary. Ensure the self-cleaning glaze is not being abraded by harsh cleaning tools.

Care Instructions:

  • Dishwasher: For best results, place plates in the dishwasher. The self-cleaning glaze aids in removing food residue.
  • Hand Washing: If hand washing, use warm, soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive scouring pads that could damage the glaze.
  • Stain Removal: For stubborn stains from highly pigmented foods (like curry or berries), a paste of baking soda and water can be gently applied and rinsed off. Ensure prompt cleaning after serving such foods to maintain the pristine white finish.
  • Chipping Prevention: While the rolled edges offer protection, avoid dropping the plates or stacking them precariously to maintain their integrity.
