Caring for Royal Worcester & Spode tableware
Storage Although the glaze is hard and resistant, to prevent scratches plates and bowls should be lifted from a stack, rather than slid against one another. Store cups by hanging from hooks or individually, stacking weakens handles.
Washing For ease of handling and to prevent damage, avoid washing too many items at once. Drain in a rack - one item at a time. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scourers as they damage glaze and patterns.
Oven & freezer Avoid placing oven and freezer-safe items where there might be a sudden change in temperature. For example, never transfer a container directly from a freezer to a hot oven or into hot water - this causes thermal shock damage.
Microwavable tableware with metal decorations such as gold or platinum patterns must not be used in a microwave as it will damage both the tableware and your microwave.Simplle Connection, 19 Tanglin Road, #02-36 Tanglin Shopping Centre.
