Avoid prolonged exposure to the refrigerator or freezer, as extreme temperatures may affect the material. Handle with care and avoid bending or reshaping the bowls, as excessive pressure may cause damage. To preserve the natural lustre of the tin, gently wash with a mild detergent and a soft sponge, avoiding abrasive materials that may scratch the surface. If the finish becomes dull over time, the shine can be restored with a metal polish or a soft baking soda paste.
