How Should You Care for This Makie Glass Cup and Saucer?

The Makie Glass Cup & Saucer product page calls this lacquer glassware dishwasher-safe. The important detail is how the saucer is made: urushi is applied to the back of the glass and covered by a special resin coating. The surface used at the table is glass. The cup itself is described as heat-resistant glass.

Keep the back coating intact

The listing warns that friction, contact with other dishes or an impact at a corner can scratch the resin on the back. If detergent reaches the layer beneath, the coating may peel, discolor or deform. In that situation, the seller advises against dishwasher use and says to wash by hand. Inspect the back of the saucer before relying on its dishwasher-safe description.

What the listing does not specify

It does not give a dishwasher cycle, detergent brand, maximum drink temperature or microwave instruction. Heat-resistant glass describes the cup material; it is not a stated temperature rating in this listing. Do not infer that the decorative saucer should be heated or placed in a microwave.

Simple handling at the table

Set the 120 mm saucer where it will not rub hard against neighboring dishes, and avoid scraping or striking its decorated back. Slight handmade differences in the makie color are normal per the listing. For the current product notes and variants, use the source listing.
