- Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive scrubbers that can damage the wood.
- Do not use for hot foods or liquids, as heat can damage the wood.
- Do not put in the dishwasher, microwave, or oven.

Focused Care

Conditioning & Storage
- Apply food-grade mineral oil or beeswax regularly to maintain the wood’s moisture and prevent drying or cracking.
