FAQ

A little help with choosing, caring for and receiving your Ru ceramics.

Products & care

How should I care for my Ru mug?

Hand washing recommended for everyday care.

For other pieces, follow the care guidance on the individual product page.

What are the fine lines in the glaze?

Fine crackle lines are part of the glaze’s character, inviting a closer look with every cup. Handmade pieces may vary in glaze tone, texture, crackling, shape and kiln marks.

This does not include chips, shipping damage or other faults. If you are unsure about your piece, contact us with clear photos for review.

Will every piece look exactly the same?

Each TEAVOIR piece is crafted using traditional ceramic processes. Slight variations in glaze tone, texture, crackling, shape and natural kiln marks are part of its handmade character.
