Product Care Guide
🪵 Caring for Your Personalised Wooden Gift
With a little love, your wooden piece will last for years to come:
- Hand wash only — never put wooden items in the dishwasher. Heat and moisture cause warping and cracking.
- Dry immediately — dry thoroughly with a cloth rather than leaving it to air dry.
- Oil regularly — apply a food-safe mineral oil or beeswax every few months to nourish the wood.
- Avoid soaking — don't leave submerged in water or sitting in liquid.
- Keep away from direct heat — avoid radiators, ovens, or prolonged direct sunlight.
- The engraving — permanent and won't wash off. A light sand and re-oil can refresh the look over time.
🪨 Caring for Your Personalised Slate Gift
Slate is a beautiful, natural material that's built to last:
- Wipe clean — wipe with a damp cloth after use.
- Dry thoroughly — dry with a soft cloth to prevent water marks.
- Avoid the dishwasher — hand wash only to protect the surface and engraving.
- Oil occasionally — a little food-safe mineral oil every few months deepens the colour beautifully.
- Handle with care — slate can chip if dropped on hard surfaces.
- The engraving — laser-etched and completely permanent. Won't fade or wash away.
- Food safe — perfect for serving cheese or charcuterie. Avoid cutting directly on the surface.
