"Made in Portugal by artisans, Casafina’s ceramics are handmade and handpainted. It is normal to expect slight design and color variations from piece to piece. Earthenware is low-fired and has a tendency to “craze” (form minuscule lines) with repeated use. This crazing is the nature of earthenware products and does not have any significant effect on the ceramics.

Most terracotta/earthenware items are dishwasher safe, provided they are handled carefully as with any other handmade product. However, hand washing will prolong the life of the product. We do not recommend use in a microwave."
