Product Information
Full details
The LSA Dapple 1 Litre Glass Carafe is designed for those who appreciate elegant serveware and wish to elevate their everyday dining experience. Its key benefit lies in its beautiful, mouth-blown glass construction with a unique dappled texture that catches the light, making it both a functional serving piece and a decorative item. A potential caveat is that due to its delicate, hand-blown nature, it requires careful handling and specific cleaning methods.

FAQs
Is this carafe suitable for hot beverages?
No, the LSA Dapple Carafe is designed for cold beverages only. Introducing hot liquids could cause thermal shock and potentially crack the glass.
What is the capacity of the carafe?
The carafe has a capacity of 1 litre.
Can I put the carafe in the dishwasher?
It is strongly recommended to hand wash the carafe. Dishwasher cycles can be harsh and may lead to clouding or damage to the delicate glass finish.
How should I store the carafe when not in use?
Store the carafe on a stable surface away from high traffic areas, or in a cupboard where it is protected from accidental knocks. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
What makes the dappled surface special?
The dappled surface is a unique textural feature of the LSA Dapple collection, achieved during the mouth-blowing process. It subtly catches and refracts light, enhancing the visual appeal of the contents and the carafe itself.
Is the brown colour solid or a coating?
The 'Brown' in the product title refers to the natural colour of the glass itself, achieved through the manufacturing process, not a surface coating.
Troubleshooting
Carafe appears cloudy after washing
This may be due to hard water residue. Try washing again with a mild vinegar and water solution (1 part vinegar to 3 parts water), then rinse thoroughly and dry immediately with a soft cloth.
Difficulty pouring without spills
Ensure the carafe is held at a moderate angle. Pour steadily and do not overfill the carafe. The spout is designed for controlled pouring, but practice may be needed for perfect execution.
Minor imperfections in the glass
As the carafe is mouth-blown, slight variations or small bubbles may be present. These are characteristic of handmade glass and do not affect its functionality or aesthetic appeal.
