• The quartz sand that forms the foundation of the glass comes from the forest of Fontaineblau, France. The glass is formed in a furnace at a temperature of 1400 °C: during the fusing process, the glass takes twenty-four hours to melt, smooth out and develop. The material is blown and shaped by hand by the latest generation of Maestri di Murano (Murano’s glassmaker masters) and has a “Vetro Artistico® Murano” trademark, certifying that the glass is made following traditional techniques on the island of Murano in Venice.

• Microwave & Conventional Oven Use
Kiln-fired at approximately 1800°F, making it highly heat-resistant. However, these pieces are designed primarily for serving, not for cooking.

That said, they may be safely used for moderate reheating in both conventional and microwave ovens. For microwave use, we suggest the following general guidelines: mugs for 1–2 minutes, and plates, bowls, and similar items for up to 4 minutes. As with any ceramic, please handle with care after heating, as surfaces may become hot.

• Dishwasher Safe
To help preserve their beauty over time, we recommend arranging pieces with space between them, preventing contact during high-pressure wash cycles.
