Care Guide

Every Crafted Ware piece is built to last — but proper care helps it last even longer. Here's how to get the most from your craft.

Iron Cookware (Hand-Forged Iron Pan)

Hand-forged iron Hand-Forged Iron Pan

First use: Your pan arrives pre-seasoned with plant-based oil. Rinse with warm water before first use — no soap needed.

Daily cleaning: After cooking, rinse with hot water while the pan is still warm. Use a bamboo brush or soft sponge. Avoid harsh detergents or steel wool.

Re-seasoning: If the surface loses its non-stick quality, apply a thin layer of cooking oil and heat over medium flame for 2-3 minutes. Repeat 2-3 times.

Storage: Dry completely after washing. Store in a dry place. A light coat of oil before storage prevents rust.

Titanium Drinkware (Heritage Thermos, Titanium Portable Cup)

Titanium Heritage Thermos

Cleaning: Wash with warm water and mild soap. Titanium's oxide layer makes it naturally resistant to stains and odors.

Avoid: Do not use bleach or abrasive cleaners. While titanium is extremely durable, harsh chemicals can damage the crystallized color finish.

Insulation: For vacuum-insulated pieces, do not microwave or place on direct flame.

Lacquer Chopsticks (Heirloom Chopsticks)

CHANGDAHE Heirloom Chopsticks

Cleaning: Hand wash with warm water and mild soap. Dry with a soft cloth.

Avoid: Never use a dishwasher — high heat and harsh detergent damage natural lacquer. Do not soak for extended periods.

Silver tips: Sterling silver may develop natural tarnish over time. This is normal. CHANGDAHE offers a renewal service to restore silver tips to their original luster.

Brass Lampshade

Brass Camping Lampshade

Patina: Brass naturally develops a warm patina with use and exposure to air. This is a feature, not a flaw — it adds character and warmth.

Cleaning: For a natural patina look, simply wipe with a dry cloth. To restore shine, use a brass-specific polish sparingly.
