Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Spode Christmas Tree Bread Basket, proper care is essential. While the material is oven and microwave safe, avoid sudden thermal shock by not placing a freezing cold dish directly into a preheated oven.
For cleaning, while stoneware is generally durable, we recommend hand-washing with mild detergent to protect the intricate Christmas Tree decal from potential fading or scratching that may occur in a dishwasher over time. Always dry the basket thoroughly after washing before placing it into storage.
