Your hand painted glassware has been crafted by Marite Hewitt to provide you with years of enjoyment from these unique treasures, whether you have a mixed set of the immensely popular "Tulip" Glasses, the "Canadian Wildlife Series" or my own favourite, "Summer Tulip Series".

Appreciate and value the variations in each piece of your hand painted  stemware, they are a hallmark of fine hand painting and each is an individual creation. 

You have to do your share to care for them. They are dish washer safe but we would like you to hand wash them in warm soapy water to protect them against chipping. Even though Marite uses three coats of paint and fires them in a kiln to give you that  unique translucent look that allows you to use and admire them every day, they are glassware and should be treated with care to give you years of enjoyment.

Please Avoid:

Being concerned about a small bubble in your glassware, this is not a flaw but a natural characteristic of the glass.

Storing your glassware upside-down.    

Holding a glass by the foot with one hand while washing or drying the bowl with the other, you may snap the stem.

Letting a glass slip out of your grasp while washing.

Alowing your hand painted glassware to soak for an extended period of time or your drying towel be become very wet as a wet linen towel will cling to the glass and increase the probility of breakage when wiping.

Finally, enjoy your hand painted glass and use if often to light up your table!
