All of Emma Bridgewater’s pottery is dishwasher safe (this excludes the pottery which is decorated with silver or gold). When using a dishwasher, Emma Bridgewater suggest customers use a lower temperature setting and liquid detergent to maintain the pristine appearance of the product. Emma Bridgewater recommend handwashing its glassware, with a non-abrasive, mild cream detergent. Tap water may leave mineral deposits on the glass. These deposits can be removed using vinegar on a soft, lint-free polishing cloth. Customers can also add vinegar to soapy water when hand washing their glasses to remove persistent spots or stains.
