Care of Ceramics

All items are food safe and made with non-toxic materials unless stated otherwise. Hand washing is recommended to properly care for your pieces.

Although we hope your ceramics have a long happy life in your home, accidents happen and ceramics can break. In the event of a broken piece, please handle it with care so as to not injure yourself. Research your area’s local recycling policy to know how to properly dispose of the broken item. For example, the City of Toronto recommends wrapping “sharp edges with thick or multi-layered material (e.g. paper, cardboard, soft plastic, fabric) before placing in the Garbage Bin.”
