How should I clean Bohemia Crystal?
For most undecorated glassware:
- Wash in lukewarm water with a mild, non-abrasive detergent and a soft sponge.
- Rinse thoroughly.
- Dry immediately with a soft cloth, ideally linen or microfibre.
For pieces decorated with gold, platinum or paint, hand wash only in lukewarm water with a soft sponge and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive materials and dry gently.
Is Bohemia Crystal dishwasher safe?
Plain, undecorated glassware can usually go in the dishwasher on a gentle, low temperature glass programme. Open the dishwasher door at the end of the cycle so steam can escape. Decorated pieces with gold, platinum or painted finishes are not dishwasher safe and should always be hand washed. Avoid contact with metal cutlery in the dishwasher, as this can cause grey marks.
What should I avoid?
- Microwave use or serving very hot drinks
- Sudden temperature changes
- Stacking glasses inside one another
- Abrasive scourers or harsh detergents
- Forcefully twisting the bowl and foot in opposite directions when polishing stemware
How do I store Bohemia Crystal?
Keep pieces away from the edge of shelves and avoid overcrowding so they cannot knock against each other. Lift rather than slide items when moving them.
With gentle washing and careful handling, Bohemia Crystal will keep its clarity and sparkle for years of Australian entertaining.
