Vermont Gift and Glass Crystal Glassware care

How to care for your Glassware

Taking a few moments to care for your glassware will
help keep it brilliant and clear throughout a lifetime of use.

We recommend the following care:

Do not expose to rapid temperature changes or extremes of temperature.

Do not place in the microwave, oven, dishwasher, or freezer.

Avoid placing in direct sunlight.

For best results, avoid contact with metal utensils when stirring or serving.

For candlesticks, do not secure candles with molten wax or allow candles

to burn within three inches of the candle cup. Dripless candles are
preferable. If wax does adhere to candlestick, clean gently with denatured
alcohol.

Store your glassware right side up; do not stack vessels. Avoid sliding or

twirling the glass.

Avoid contact with hard or abrasive materials. You may wish to cover

display areas with protective felt.

Avoid packing glassware in newspaper or other moisture-absorbing

materials for long periods of time; soft cloth or bubble wrap is preferable.

Cleaning your glassware:

First and foremost to keep in mind is that fine glassware is NOT

dishwasher safe. Washing these products in the dishwasher will cause
dramatic loss of color in the luster, along with a fading of the 24k gold
accents (where applicable).

Hand wash using a non-abrasive cleaner in warm water. You may wish to

cushion the sink with a towel or rubber mat.

If stains appear on the vessel, gently rub with half a lemon, wash with

vinegar, or soak the interior with powdered dentifrice dissolved in lukewarm
water.

In areas with very hard water and high mineral content, distilled water will

help prevent staining.

To dry, use a soft, lint-free cloth, or air dry.

To avoid scratching, dust with a soft, lint-free cloth dampened in a mild

solution of 1-part ammonia to 3-parts water.
