Care for Edo Kiriko

The theme of this article is "How to care for Edo Kiriko."

Edo Kiriko is made by skilled craftsmen, from molding the glass to cutting it one by one.

This is a supreme masterpiece. Careful maintenance of Edo Kiriko is extremely important to maintain its beauty.

Please refer to the following steps:

Hand washing is the rule : Edo Kiriko is a delicate glass product, so avoid using the dishwasher and wash by hand.

Detergent selection : It is best to use a mild detergent. Avoid strong detergents and bleach.

Use a soft sponge : Wash gently with a soft sponge, as hard sponges and brushes can cause scratches.

Cleaning Instructions : Wash the glass thoroughly, inside and out, paying particular attention to the cut edges. Rinse thoroughly to remove any residue.

Drying : After washing, wipe off excess water with a soft cloth. Avoid direct sunlight and allow to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area.

Storage : When not in use, store in its case or wrapped in a cloth to protect it from dust and scratches. Avoid direct sunlight and humidity.

Even if you don't use it regularly but only on special occasions, be sure to wash it regularly to keep it looking beautiful.

When washing with water, we recommend gently scrubbing the grooves of the cuts with a scrubbing brush, and then finally washing the inside with a sponge.

Washing gently with a scrubbing brush is especially effective for items with intricate cuts such as chrysanthemum patterns and octagonal basket weave. Be sure to wash carefully to avoid scratches.

If not maintained regularly, the glass may become cloudy and emit an acidic odor. Because Edo Kiriko is made from high-quality glass, maintenance is very important.

By taking care of your Edo Kiriko, you can enjoy its beauty for a long time. Treat it with care and experience its charm in your daily life.
