Caring for Your Sandcarved Glassware

Our deep sandcarving permanently removes glass to create your recessed design. Because the carved areas are thinner, they need extra care to protect against impact.

Add ice gently. Never dispense ice directly from a refrigerator into your glass or drop large cubes or ice spheres into an empty glass. Collect ice in a separate container, then gently place it into your glass by hand or with a scoop. Falling ice can crack the glass, especially if it strikes an engraved area.

Hand washing is recommended. Your design is permanent—it will never wash off, fade, or peel. We recommend gentle hand washing as a precaution to protect the glass itself from bumps and contact with other dishes in the dishwasher.

Avoid sudden temperature changes. Do not pour hot liquids into a cold glass or add ice to a glass that is still warm from washing. Allow the glass to reach room temperature first.
