Initiation:
Before first use, rinse the cup with lukewarm (not hot) water, then let it dry completely!
Usage:
Porcelain is sensitive to sudden temperature changes, never expose the cup to open flame! Avoid placing it on hot surfaces, like stove, and never use it in microwave or oven.
Cleaning:
Rinse it well after every use. It is better to avoid dishwashing liquid, but you can use gentle, organic soap to clean your cup. Never use bleach!
Avoid using dishwasher or dryer!
Avoid scrubbing the cup as it might damage the painting.
Storage:
After use, always let the cup dry completely, for if stored away while still wet, it might develop an unpleasant smell or mold.
