Know before you buy
Yes, the gold luster is a decorative finish applied to the stoneware. While it is durable, we recommend hand washing the decanter with a soft cloth to preserve the shine and prevent any scratching of the metallic surface.
The chunky grog is a fired clay additive that provides the decanter with its distinct, tactile texture and structural integrity. It gives the piece a more organic, artisanal feel compared to standard, smooth-finished ceramics.
While it is designed for serving, it is best suited for short-term storage or display. Because it is a stoneware piece, it is not airtight like a glass decanter with a rubber seal, so spirits may evaporate if left for extended periods.
We recommend rinsing the interior with warm water and a mild detergent. Due to the narrow neck and the delicate exterior finish, avoid using abrasive scrubbers or placing the decanter in the dishwasher.
Yes, because the blue glaze is hand-painted, each decanter will feature slight variations in color intensity and application. This makes every piece unique rather than mass-produced.
