Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Olympia dishes, follow these best practices:

  1. Usage: These dishes are oven, microwave, and dishwasher safe. Avoid placing them on direct stovetop elements, as they are designed for oven use only.
  2. Thermal Shock: While durable, avoid taking the dishes directly from a sub-zero freezer into a hot oven, as drastic temperature changes can cause cracking.
  3. Cleaning: While dishwasher safe, it is recommended to use non-abrasive detergents to preserve the finish of the matt black glaze.
  4. Storage: Stack with care, perhaps using a felt or soft cloth separator if storing in a deep pile, to protect the exterior finish from friction marks.
