Haviland porcelain is made at the manufactory in Limoges, France, and most of its decorations are applied entirely by hand. They are made to be used every day, and a few simple habits, with a gentle touch, keep the porcelain and its decoration bright for many years.

Everyday cleaning

  • Haviland recommends washing its pieces by hand with a microfiber sponge.
  • However you wash them, wipe each piece afterward with a soft, dry cloth to keep the porcelain and its decoration shining.

Dishwasher

  • Haviland states that its decorations hold up to 500 machine washes in normal home use.
  • Haviland strongly advises against the dishwasher for pieces with raised (relief) decoration or with gold or platinum incrustation. Wash those by hand.

Microwave

  • White porcelain and decorations without precious metals can go in the microwave.
  • Never microwave a piece decorated with gold, platinum or any other precious metal.
