How to Clean Your MODOK Bone Variant Tiki Mug
Hand wash only. Avoid the dishwasher—the high heat and harsh detergents can damage the brown-wiped glaze and natural ceramic surface. Use warm water, a soft sponge, and a mild dish soap. Gently scrub the inside and outside, then rinse thoroughly.
Do not use abrasive scrubbers, steel wool, or harsh chemical cleaners. They can scratch or dull the glaze. For stubborn residue, let the mug soak in warm soapy water for a few minutes before wiping. Dry immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
Display and Storage Tips
The MODOK Bone Variant Tiki Mug is a collectible piece, so where you put it matters. Place it on a stable, level shelf away from edges where it could be knocked off. Avoid direct sunlight for long periods, as UV rays can fade or alter the glaze over time.
If you plan to use the mug for drinking, make sure it's fully dry before storing. For display-only purposes, a dust-free cabinet or shelf keeps it looking its best without frequent cleaning. Because the mug is handmade, the glaze may develop fine crazing (tiny cracks) over time—this is normal and not a defect.
What to Avoid
Don't microwave the mug—the natural ceramic and glaze may not be microwave-safe, and the metal-like glaze could cause sparking or damage. Avoid sudden temperature changes, like pouring boiling water into a cold mug, which can cause cracking.
Keep the mug away from abrasive surfaces and other ceramic items that could scratch the glaze during storage. If stacking with other mugs, place a soft cloth or paper towel between them.
