CARE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Ceramic Jewelry Care

A. Avoid Strong Impact

• Ceramic jewelry is hard but brittle; it may crack or break if dropped or hit.
• Refrain from wearing it during intense physical activities or manual labor.

B. Keep Away from Water and Chemicals

• Do not wear ceramic jewelry while washing hands, bathing, swimming, or exposing it to prolonged moisture.
• Avoid perfumes, lotions, and cleaning agents, as they may dull the glaze and affect the natural color.

C. Proper Cleaning

• Use a soft cloth to gently wipe off dust and dirt.
• Do not place in a dishwasher or use abrasive brushes that may scratch the ceramic surface.

D. Careful Storage

• Store separately in a jewelry box or soft pouch to prevent scratches from metal or other hard objects.
• Consider adding a silica gel packet to absorb moisture, especially for earrings and necklaces with metal parts.

E. Limit Exposure to High Temperatures

• Keep ceramic jewelry away from heat sources such as stoves or prolonged direct sunlight to maintain its glaze and color.

2. Care for Dó Paper and Xuyến Chỉ Paper Prints

• Keep prints away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and damage.
• Store in a dry, well-ventilated place to avoid mold and humidity.
• Frame with UV-protected glass, ensuring space between the print and glass to prevent sticking or deterioration.
• Avoid direct contact with the artwork surface to prevent smudges or oil stains.
• Clean gently with a soft brush or an air blower on the lowest setting—never use water or chemicals.
• Keep away from heat sources and moisture to maintain the paper’s integrity.

3. Postcard Care

• Avoid direct sunlight to preserve color vibrancy and prevent fading.
• Store in a dry, cool place to prevent mold and warping. If a postcard becomes bent, place a heavy, flat object over it to restore its shape.
• Keep postcards in a protective sleeve, rigid case, or box to minimize dust and scratches.
• Avoid touching the printed surface directly to prevent fingerprints and oil stains.
• Do not fold or bend to maintain a crisp and pristine look.
• Clean with a dry, soft cloth or brush—never use water or chemicals.

4. Sticker Care

• Keep stickers away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. If a sticker curls before use, press it under a flat, heavy object to smooth it out.
• Store in a dry, well-ventilated place to prevent adhesive damage from humidity.
• Keep protective backing intact until ready to use, preventing dust and scratches.
• Avoid stacking unused stickers to prevent adhesive transfer or curling edges.
• Limit direct contact with the adhesive side to maintain strong adhesion.
• Once applied, avoid exposure to water and heat to ensure stickers remain intact and do not peel prematurely.
