Liberta Borosilicate Carafe - Ichendorf Milano - White

Borosilicate glass is a type of glass known for its low coefficient of thermal expansion and resistance to thermal shock. This makes it more durable than standard glass and less likely to break when exposed to temperature changes.

Light molding refers to a glassmaking technique where molten glass is shaped using molds. 'Light' suggests a method that may involve less pressure or a specific type of mold, contributing to the unique characteristics of handmade glass.

While borosilicate glass can handle some heat, the carafe is primarily designed for cold or room-temperature beverages. Extreme or rapid temperature changes are not recommended to preserve the handmade quality and integrity of the glass.

The opening diameter is not explicitly stated, but it is designed to accommodate ice cubes and fruit slices for infused water, suggesting a reasonably sized opening.

The carafe has a capacity of 135 cl (centiliters), which is equivalent to 1.35 liters.

The 'White' color family likely refers to the overall aesthetic or presentation of the product, rather than the glass being opaque white. Borosilicate glass is typically clear, allowing the contents to be visible.

This is common due to the handmade and light molded fabrication process. These minor variations are characteristic of artisanal glasswork and do not affect functionality.

Ensure the carafe is thoroughly cleaned before use. Wash with warm water and mild soap, rinsing well. Avoid using harsh detergents.

Use a bottle brush designed for carafes or carafes with a long handle. For stubborn residue, a mixture of baking soda and water can be effective when gently scrubbed.
