Caring For Crystal
Crystal is a high quality form of glass, produced with
lead oxide which creates light reflection. All pieces are delicate and
need to be cleaned with care.
Remember, most damage happens when cleaning or moving
pieces. Therefore, you have to be careful each time you clean a piece.
When moving objects, always carry one object or one part
of an object at a time.
It is best to place your hands around the body of the
object rather than using an existing handle, rim, or spout for support.
In general, it is not a good idea to routinely wash the
pieces. Each time a piece is handled for cleaning there is a greater
risk of breakage through accidents and mishandling.
It is better to protect pieces from soiling and dust in
the first place, rather than washing them too often.
To maintain the beauty and power of your crystals,
always keep them in a cabinet away from dust. Objects should be kept
free of dust, debris, and oily residues.
Keeping in a cabinet also prevents the items to be
broken. Store individual glass objects separately.
Do not stack or crowd items and be sure they are kept
well back from the edge of the shelf. Avoid wrapping glass in tissue or
newspaper, which may attract and hold dampness.
When the piece has dust on it,. we recommend you to use
Blow Dryer on cool air to get rid of dust. Remember that, fine crystal
and glassware can crack or break when subjected to extremes of hot and
cold. Lighting candles in candleholders is also not recommended.
If the item has fingerprints on it, we never recommend
you to place it in dishwasher.
Fingerprints will disappear when you use a small amount
of glass cleaner with a soft, lint free cloth or wash your fine crystal
and glassware by hand in moderately warm water with a mild lemon
detergent and 1/4 cup ammonia (to prevent spotting).
Rinse in clean water and air dry on a rack.
It is believed that crystal heals and balances
bio-energy. It can also convert daily life's negative energy to
positive.
Therefore, we recommend you to hang our Crystal
ornaments on your windows or on your car to bring all the reflections
of Sunlight in and the positive energy.
