Troubleshooting

Saucer appears cloudy after washing

This may be due to hard water mineral deposits. Try washing again with a bit of white vinegar mixed with warm water, rinse thoroughly, and dry immediately with a soft cloth.

Saucer has a small imperfection

As the saucers are hand-blown, minor variations or small bubbles can occur and are characteristic of the artisanal process. These do not affect the functionality.

Saucer feels fragile

Borosilicate glass is durable for its type, but still requires careful handling. Avoid sudden temperature changes and direct impacts.
