We make items with longevity in mind. We use the finest materials we can find locally and make everything by hand using traditional processes to ensure that everything will last when it is properly looked after. All our colour collection fine bone china is dishwasher safe up to 60º. Please wash with care and do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning utensils on them. We recommend using only liquid or gel detergents as tablets and powder can be abrasive. 

Anything with Gold on it is hand wash only, and do not use anything abrasive on them. The hand painted gold is actual gold and therefore they cannot be put in microwaves or in dishwashers. Do not use any abrasive cleaning products. If hand washed, the gold should last a lifetime.

Our candles are made from 100% natural ingredients and as such require a little TLC. Firstly, always trim the wick to 5mm before lighting to ensure a consistent burn. On first burn, make sure to have the candle lit for at least 2 hours to ensure the wax pool reaches as close to the edge as possible. Each time you burn the candle, let it burn long enough so the wax pool can melt as close to the edge of the container as possible. Never leave the candle burning for more than 4 hours at a time. Changes in room temperature, direct sunlight, wick length and how long the candle is burned for will all affect how it will keep in the long run.

When your candle is finished, reuse the container by filling it with very hot water and then letting it cool. Any remaining wax will rise to the surface and solidify. Scoop out this hard wax when it is cool enough to do so and discard, then wash the container and it will be ready to reuse!

Our cold-process soap is 100% natural, and therefore benefits from good drainage and ventilation as it does not have any chemical hardeners in it.  We recommend using a soap dish - ours has extra high ridges to ensure the soap is lifted free from any water. 

Our blankets are made from 100% superfine Geelong lambswool - they have a beautiful drape and are super soft but more hardwearing than cashmere. To clean them we recommend hand-washing using a delicate detergent designed for wool washing.

1. Place blanket in lukewarm water using a delicate detergent. You can purchase detergents specifically for wool. Please do not use Biological detergents as these can damage cashmere and wool fibres.  Gently squeeze the blanket but do not over agitate.

2. Rinse the blanket until the water runs clear. Again, avoid over agitating the blanket as this can cause the blanket to felt.

3. Remove any excess water by gently squeezing. If you have a gentle spin on your washing machine, place the blanket in a pillowcase or duvet cover (depending on the size) and give it a gentle spin in the machine.

4. Dry on a clean flat surface and reshape the blanket while it is damp.

If you would rather let the professionals handle it then you can have it dry cleaned with reputable cleaners!
