Can This Nashiji Lacquer Glass Plate Go in the Dishwasher?

The Nashiji Gold Leaf Square Glass Plate is listed as dishwasher-safe lacquer glassware. The maker says the urushi finish is applied behind the glass and sealed within a dishwasher-safe resin coating.

Why the backing matters

Food touches the glass side, while the decorative lacquer lies behind it. The back coating protects that lacquer from normal contact and improves resistance to detergent and heat. The dishwasher claim depends on the condition of this backing.

When to wash by hand

The product page warns that friction, dish-to-dish contact, or corner impacts can scratch the resin on the back. If detergent reaches the layers underneath, the coating may peel, discolor, or deform. If the back has been damaged, the seller says to stop using a dishwasher and wash the plate by hand.
