Storage

Storing Your Fine China

Make sure your china is washed and completely dry before storing.
If you are using cloth china storage sets (these are available online or by calling our factory store at 1 (888) 822-5397), use the dividers provided to separate your items and store them in a safe place.

• If you do not have cloth china storage sets, paper plates or coffee filters may be used as separators.
• If your china is very old and delicate, do not make a large stack as the weight could crack or damage your pieces.
• Once your items are stacked with separators in place, it is recommended that you wrap the stacks in plastic wrap, recycled dry-cleaning bags or other available plastic. If your china is exposed to extreme temperatures, let the china come to normal room temperature before heavy handling or cleaning.

Care Advice for Stored China

After removing your china from storage, you may need to polish the gold rim as these can slightly tarnish. Oxidation or discoloration can build up on a platinum or gold trim very easily if left exposed to air or water/moisture and heat as well. We recommend removing the tarnish using Cape Cod polish as it is gentle but effective, along with a soft jeweler's polishing cloth.
