Troubleshooting
Bowl appears dusty or dull.
Wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth to restore shine. Ensure you are not using any abrasive cleaning agents.
Minor chips or scratches on the surface.
Unfortunately, significant chips or scratches on glazed ceramic are difficult to repair and may require replacement. Handle with extreme care during use and cleaning.
