Can I put these placemats in the dishwasher?

No, these placemats are not dishwasher safe. Dishwasher cycles and detergents can severely damage the lacquer finish.

How many placemats are in a set?

Are they suitable for everyday use or only special occasions?

Troubleshooting

Placemat has a smudge or fingerprint.

Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately with a clean, soft cloth.

Visible scratches on the surface.

Minor surface scratches may be buffed with a specialized plastic polish, but deep scratches are permanent. Avoid placing abrasive items on the placemats.
