Tawashi Brush
How to Wash Your Dishes
01
Let's Get Started
Rinse your tawashi brush under the tap and give it a good shake to remove any water. This is to make sure there’s nothing hiding between the palm hemp fibres.
02
Multi-Purpose
We recommend using warm water, adding a little dishwashing liquid straight onto the brush and gently scrubbing. The tawashi can also be used on non-stick pans, cutlery and even root vegetables and fruits.
03
Rinse and Dry
After use, rinse the tawashi brush – it’s easy for pieces of food to get stuck in between the long bristles. Dry the bursh, either hanging from the tap or flat in a small bowl or soap dish. It’ll last longer the more care you give it.

Is your pottery food safe?

Can I put it in the microwave or oven?
Yes, all our stoneware products are safe to use in the oven and microwave, to a temperature of 250 ºC. Steer clear of placing pieces straight from the oven on to a cold surface, as a measure against shock resistance.
How about the freezer?

Is is dishwasher safe?
Yes, our products can be washed daily in the dishwasher. To ensure our dishes last longer it is advisable to space them so they don’t rub or bump against each other during the cycle. We recommend you wash the larger and more delicate pieces by hand, as a precaution.

No. Monoware dinnerware is not suitable for stovetop cooking or for use with an open flame.
