Care Instructions: Ceramic Objects
HANDLING OF CERAMIC OBJECTS
Please handle ceramic objects with care. Keep the object away from smoke, heat, flames, high humidity, extreme temperature fluctuations, and continuous exposure to UV light. Do not expose the object to moisture or liquids. If the object gets wet, wipe off excess moisture with a lint-free cloth, and let it air dry at room temperature. Please note, that ceramic objects are fragile and may have sharp edges or points that can cause injuries. Therefore, please be careful when handling ceramics. To prevent injuries, as well as damage to the artwork, it is recommended to wear gloves when handling art.
DISPLAYING
Ceramic objects are meant to be displayed in indoor spaces with stable room temperature and humidity. To prevent damage or injury, please choose a display location and method, that prevents the object from falling or tipping over, as well as being accessed by small children and pets. Please confirm that all surfaces and installation hardware are stable enough to support the weight of the object. Please do not display the object on delicate surfaces, as it might leave behind scratches or stains. Ceramic objects, vessels and sculptures are not a toy or commodity, and are not considered food-safe. Please do not fill with liquids. Please do not use other than intended.
TRANSPORTATION & STORAGE
Carefully wrap the object in tissue paper or lint-free cloth. Then place it in a sturdy box with enough cushioning material to prevent the object from moving or shifting during transport.
CLEANING
For cleaning, carefully dust off the object with a dry lint-free cloth. Please be careful not to apply too much pressure, as the object might break or get damaged.
MAINTENANCE
Over the years, ceramic objects might show signs of pollution and aging. To preserve the artwork for future generations, it is recommended to have it cleaned by a professional art conservator. Please note that the artist is not responsible for the maintenance of the artwork and will not cover any costs for cleaning, repairs, restoration, insurance, or other.
Please note, that the artist is not responsible for any losses, damages, or injuries that occur from handling, displaying, cleaning, transporting, or storing the artwork.
