Handling precautions

Initiation:
Before first use, rinse the set with hot water, then let each piece dry completely!

Usage:
Avoid placing the set on hot surfaces, like a stove, and never use it in the microwave or oven.

Cleaning:
Tea stain is a natural part of a teapot's "maturing process", but if you prefer to avoid it, rinse the teapot well after every use, and do not let the tea leaves sit in it for too long. It is better to avoid dishwashing liquid. Never use bleach!
Avoid using the dishwasher or dryer!
Do not scrub the teapot, pitcher, or cups because it can damage the paint on the surface.
To clean the teapot's built-in strainer, run water backward from the spout, or use a toothbrush or toothpick.

Storage:
After use, always let the teapot and the cups dry completely, for if stored away while still wet, they might develop an unpleasant smell or mold.
