How to remove stains from a decanter or a vase?
Clean vases and decanters by filling them half-full with moderately hot water, a small amount of mild detergent, two tablespoons of white vinegar or ammonia and a cup uncooked rice. Swirl the rice around for a few minutes to remove residue. Rinse well with moderately hot water and air dry, upside down, on a rack.
Remove more stubborn stains by filling the container with warm water and dropping in a denture-cleaning tablet; let it sit until the stain disappears
Can crystal be cleaned in a dish washer?
Orrefors does not recommend cleaning crystal in a dishwasher since the heat and abrasive cleaners may mark the surface of the crystal.
Repairing of the chipped or broken crystal
If a piece of crystal gets broken, it cannot be repaired to as new condition. Orrefors does not suggest or endorse gluing or in any manner sticking the pieces together. Chipped glasses can be ground down at some repair shops, however these pieces will have an etched white rim and be considerably shorter than the rest of the pieces. Chipping or breakages are part of normal wear and tear of the pieces, and Orrefors suggest replacing them with new ones as they become damaged. | |
