FAQs
What does 'reactive glaze' mean for my mugs?
Reactive glaze is a type of ceramic finish that creates unique, unpredictable color variations and patterns during the firing process. This means no two mugs will be exactly alike, giving each piece an artisanal and distinct look.
How large is the capacity of each mug?
Each mug has a generous capacity of 720ml, making them ideal for larger servings of your favorite hot beverages.
Are these mugs microwave safe?
It is generally recommended to exercise caution with microwave use for ceramics featuring reactive glazes. While they may withstand it, some glazes can heat unevenly. For best results and longevity, handwashing and avoiding prolonged microwave use is advised.
Can I put these mugs in the dishwasher?
Yes, these mugs are dishwasher safe, which allows for convenient cleaning.
What material are the mugs made from?
The mugs are crafted from durable ceramic.
Do the color variations mean the mugs are defective?
No, the color variations are a natural and intentional characteristic of the reactive glaze finish. This uniqueness is part of the product's charm and artisanal appeal.
How should I care for these mugs to maintain their appearance?
While dishwasher safe, handwashing with a soft sponge and mild detergent is recommended for preserving the reactive glaze's unique finish over time. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Troubleshooting
Mug has a slight crack or chip.
Inspect the mug carefully. Minor chips on the rim may not affect usability, but larger cracks can compromise integrity. If significantly damaged, it is best to discontinue use to avoid breakage.
Color variation is more significant than expected.
This is a normal characteristic of reactive glazes. Each piece is unique, and variations in color and pattern are intentional and part of the artisanal appeal. Embrace the uniqueness of your mug.
Mug feels unusually hot after microwave use.
Discontinue microwave use. Ceramic, especially with reactive glazes, can sometimes overheat. Always use caution when removing hot items from a microwave.
Dishwasher leaves residue.
Ensure the mugs are placed with adequate space in the dishwasher to allow water circulation. Use a suitable amount of detergent and consider a rinse aid if water hardness is an issue. If problems persist, handwashing is recommended.
