How should I clean the dish?

Clean the dish with a dry cloth only. Do not use water, soap, or any abrasive cleaning agents.

What are the dimensions of the dish?

The dimensions are Height: 16 cm, Width: 45 cm, and Length: 45 cm (Diameter: 45 cm).

Are the slight imperfections normal?

Yes, as the dish is hand-finished, slight imperfections and variations in texture are normal and contribute to its unique character.

Does the dish come in other colors?

Gently wipe the surface with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using any liquids or cleaning solutions.

Noticeable imperfections or variations in texture

These are inherent characteristics of a hand-finished papier-mâché product and are considered part of its unique artisanal charm, not a defect.
