Materials

Handcrafted from durable, high-quality terracotta and finished with a protective deep ink blue glaze.

Installation & Maintenance

The dish is designed for modern convenience and is safe for use in the microwave, oven, and dishwasher. To maintain its artisan finish, handle the dish with care to avoid chipping against hard surfaces. After cleaning, ensure the terracotta is thoroughly dried before storing in a cupboard to prevent any moisture-related damage. For stubborn food residue, soak briefly in warm soapy water before washing with a non-abrasive sponge.

Safety Warnings

Burn hazard: the terracotta material retains heat efficiently; always use heat-resistant oven mitts or gloves when removing the dish from an oven or microwave. Avoid sudden extreme temperature changes, such as placing a cold dish directly into a preheated high-temperature oven, as thermal shock can cause the ceramic to crack. Inspect the glaze regularly for any deep chips or cracks, and discard the item if the structural integrity is compromised. Keep out of reach of small children when filled with hot food, and ensure it is placed on a stable, heat-protected surface during service.
