FAQs
Are these tumblers dishwasher safe?
No, the Serax Dune Tumblers are not dishwasher safe. Hand washing is recommended to preserve the delicate mouthblown glass and the ribbed detailing.
Can I use these for hot drinks like coffee or tea?
These tumblers are designed for cold or room-temperature beverages. They are not suitable for hot liquids as the glass may not withstand the thermal shock.
What does 'mouthblown' mean?
Mouthblown means that each piece of glass is individually shaped by a glassblower using a blowpipe. This artisanal technique ensures that each tumbler has unique characteristics.
How should I store the tumblers?
Store the tumblers upright on a stable surface in your cupboard or on a shelf. Ensure there is enough space to prevent them from knocking against each other and causing damage.
What is the 'Planetary ring detail'?
This refers to the dynamic ribbed detailing on the glass, which is inspired by the appearance of a planet's rings. It provides a unique tactile feature and visual interest.
Is the white color a coating?
The description indicates a 'transparent white finish,' suggesting the glass itself is clear and the white is the natural appearance of the glass or a subtle tint. It is not a painted coating.
Can I put these in the freezer?
It is not recommended to place these glass tumblers in the freezer. Rapid temperature changes can stress the glass and potentially lead to breakage.
Troubleshooting
Glass appears cloudy after washing
This is often due to mineral deposits from hard water or soap residue. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly. Towel dry immediately with a soft cloth to prevent spots from forming.
Tumbler feels unbalanced or wobbly
As these are mouthblown, slight variations can occur. If a tumbler feels significantly unstable, check the surface it's placed on. Ensure the base is completely flat. Contact customer support if the issue persists.
Not suitable for hot beverages
The glass may not be tempered to withstand thermal shock from extreme temperature changes. Using very hot liquids could cause the glass to crack or break. Stick to cold or room-temperature beverages.
