Troubleshooting
Uneven glaze or color variation
This is an inherent characteristic of the hand-glazed ceramic and the Wabi-Sabi design philosophy, not a defect. Each piece is unique.
Plate has a slight wobble
Minor imperfections are part of the artisanal nature. Ensure it's placed on a level surface. If significant, contact customer support.
Surface appears scratched
Avoid using abrasive cloths or sharp objects for cleaning. If scratches are minor, they may blend with the natural glaze over time. For significant scratches, consider it part of the piece's patina.
