How to preserve your UTZ Home pieces for a lifetime

How to preserve your UTZ Home pieces for a lifetime

Every UTZ Home item is crafted with care, time, and skilled hands. These are not mass-produced objects, they’re unique pieces meant to last. With proper care, your products will remain beautiful and functional for years to come.

Here's how to treat them with the respect they deserve:

Handcrafted Ceramics

Our ceramics are handmade, high-fired, and glazed using traditional techniques. While durable, they require gentle handling.

Essential care tips:

1. Hand wash only using warm water and mild soap. Avoid abrasive sponges.

2. Avoid sudden temperature changes, such as moving from oven to cold water.

3. Do not use in microwaves or dishwashers, unless specifically stated.

4. Dry thoroughly before storing to prevent moisture buildup.

Extra tip: If you notice fine cracks in the glaze (known as crazing), don’t worry, it’s a natural part of the aging process in artisanal ceramics.

Recycled Glass

Our glassware is made from recycled materials and shaped manually in local workshops. Each piece has subtle variations that make it one of a kind.

Essential care tips:

1. Hand wash only with warm water and gentle detergent.

2. Handle with care, artisanal glass may be more fragile than industrial glass.

3. Avoid direct heat exposure, such as ovens or stovetops.

Extra tip: To restore shine, use a mix of white vinegar and water as a natural cleaner.

Caring Is Part of the Ritual

At Utz Home, we believe that caring for what you own is a way to honor the craftsmanship behind it. It’s also a way to live more slowly, more consciously, and more connected.

Thank you for choosing responsible design. Thank you for caring.
