Care Information

For a lifetime of enjoyment with your Jerpoint Glass, follow these simple care instructions.

Wash by hand in lukewarm water. We do not recommend Jerpoint for use in a dishwasher as the water is heated rapidly, which may cause thermal shock. Also, dishwasher detergents can be very abrasive and will damage your glass over time.
Avoid drip-drying or air-drying as this may leave residue marks on the glass. For the best results polish your glass with a good-quality linen cloth.
Avoid rapid temperature change as it could cause thermal shock that may lead to a crack in your glass, particularly jugs and tankards.
Do not allow candles to burn within 4 cm of the rim of the candleholder (to avoid thermal shock).
Always handle with care; a knock can cause a weakness in the glass that shows up as a crack long after an accident occurred.
Refresh the water in your flower vases regularly to avoid residue build up. Do not allow water to stand in the glass for a very long time, as this will also leave a residue mark.
Do not leave paperweights in sunlight as they can concentrate the sun’s rays like a magnifying glass, which may scorch paper or wood.
We recommend a 40-watt light bulb in your Jerpoint Lamp.
