Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Our brass/Pital and copper pieces are handcrafted from solid metal and will naturally develop a warm patina over time — this is part of their character, not a flaw. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use, and clean occasionally with a brass/Pital/copper-safe metal polish or a mix of lemon juice and salt. Avoid dishwashers, abrasive scrubbers and prolonged contact with water. Store in a dry place.
