Care Instructions

1. Handle with Care. Soapstone is delicate, so please handle them with care to prevent any accidental mishaps. You can place them on cushioned surface to avoid cracking when placing them on a surface.

2. Protect from Sunlight: Keep them away from direct sunlight to avoid fading and preserve their colors and intricate carvings.

3. Temperature TLC: Avoid exposing them to very hot or very cold environments as it could cause the stone to crack or get damaged.

4. Cleaning: 

*Use a soft, dry cloth to dust and keep them looking fresh and clean.

*In case of a mishap, use plain water to clean. Skip the harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners, as they can harm the stone's natural beauty.

5. Soapstone can absorb moisture over time, so avoid placing them in humid spots or in direct contact with water.

6. For those who want to go the extra mile, a light coat of food-grade mineral oil or beeswax can enhance their natural shine and offer extra protection.
