Care and use

Looking after your cutlery, china and crystal

Cutlery: Cleaning

  1. Dishwasher: follow the instructions that come with your dishwasher, and use a liquid detergent or a cream, not powder.
  2. Knives: load with the blade pointing downwards for safety. Take special care: the blades have a higher carbon content, which creates a sharper cutting edge but is also more prone to corrosion.
  3. Rinse or wash after use: prolonged contact with salt, vinegar, egg, acidic fruits, detergents or some of the mineral salts in tap water can cause pitting and staining.

Cutlery: Drying and polishing

  1. Hand-dry with a soft cloth shortly after the wash cycle has finished.
  2. Stains: polish away with a stainless steel polish.

Cutlery: Avoid

  1. Rinse and hold cycles: cutlery left in a damp atmosphere can become stained or damaged.
  2. Mixing silver-plated and stainless steel items in the same cycle.
  3. Wire wool or abrasive cleaners, which may scratch the stainless steel.
  4. Soaking stainless steel cutlery or storing it in damp conditions, as this may cause staining and require polishing.

Fine bone china

  1. Hand wash only is recommended.
  2. Not suitable for use in a microwave.
  3. Avoid abrasive materials when cleaning.

Fine crystal glassware

  1. Handle with the highest of care: handmade fine crystal glass.
  2. Wash soon after use, by hand with warm water or in a glass washer on your dishwasher's glassware setting or between 45-55 degrees. Keep the washer limescale and salt free to sustain brilliance.
  3. Rack carefully: place glassware standing yet stable and not touching, to avoid indelible scratches or cracks through vibration. A glass rack is recommended for professional use.
  4. Dry: as soon as the wash cycle has finished, open to release the steam and let the fine crystal air dry. If more polishing is needed, use a microfibre cloth, dry carefully, let the glass cool thoroughly and store carefully.
