  • Maintenance: Although dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended to maintain the plate's natural patina and finish. Avoid harsh detergents and sudden temperature changes to prevent dulling of the surface. Use wooden utensils to avoid scratching.
  • Eco-Friendly: The La Chamba cookware is crafted without toxic materials, including lead, making it a safe and environmentally friendly choice for your kitchen.
