softedge is designed with durability and daily use in mind. While our porcelain is dishwasher and microwave-safe, following our care guide will further fortify the lifetime of your pieces and minimise environmental impact.
Care Guide
MICROWAVE softedge porcelain can withstand high temperatures and is safe for microwave use. However, direct heat and sudden temperature changes may cause thermal shock, which, over time, can damage and crack your pieces. Always place hot items onto wood, cork or cloth and let them cool naturally before putting them in the fridge or freezer.
DISHWASHER All softedge porcelain is dishwasher safe. To safeguard against damage during a wash cycle, gently place each piece on the racks, leaving a generous space between different shaped items.
HANDWASHING If you don’t have a dishwasher or need to clean oversized items, wash softedge items by hand using a natural detergent and warm water before carefully stacking them in a dish rack to dry, ensuring adequate space is left between each piece.
STAINS softedge porcelain products are finished with a food-safe, stain-resistant glaze. However, we always recommend washing shortly after use to avoid anything unwanted sticking around and warranting the use of harsh detergent. For more stubborn stains, use a little water and a magic eraser to gently remove.
SILVERWARE MARKS Silverware markings may appear on softedge porcelain over time. To remove, scrub lightly with a combination of detergent and baking soda or Bar Keepers Friend and a soft cloth.
STORAGE When stacking softedge plates or bowls, small scratches may occur where glazed and unglazed surfaces come into contact.
To avoid scratches, ideally, your porcelain will either be stored in plate racks or with linen/felt between each item. Alternatively, we recommend stacking the plates face-to-face and base-to-base.
