Product Care

Food safe

All work is made with high quality stoneware clay and food safe glazes. All work is dishwasher safe, though hand washing is recommended. They are also microwave safe, but as with all handmade pieces, the better you take care of them the longer they will stay with you.

Care

Cups and mugs should only be placed on the top shelf in the dishwasher and please be careful to avoid over-stacking.

Sudden changes in temperature (e.g. from fridge to oven or from oven to a cold bench) is likely to cause thermal shock, which could damage your piece. Always place hot items onto either wood or cloth.

It's also important to understand that with regular use of metal cutlery and serving spoons, glazed surfaces will mark over time. These marks are the result of tiny metal deposits being left behind by the cutlery. More often than not they can be cleaned off with a paste made of bicarb soda and white vinegar (or water for decorated pieces). Just mix, buff on gently and rinse off. It's important to note these marks do not affect functionality of the piece. To avoid this issue, use timber serving spoons and knives where possible.

    Series

    AMPHORA

    The AMPHORA vessel series emerged in 2022, symbolizing Andrea Tsang's transition from Shanghai to Sweden. Blending elements from contemporary, traditional, and ancient cultures, she delves into the timeless influence of Asian aesthetics on ancient design. Through the AMPHORA series, she invites contemplation on the enduring nature of design and ideas, which persist largely unchanged across decades and even millennia.

    Andrea Tsang

    I’m Andrea, the fashion-designer-turned-ceramicist behind Studio ANDREA TSANG. Tired of the fashion industry grind, I left it all behind to pursue something to me more meaningful – getting my hands dirty with the most basic of materials, clay.

    I left Hong Kong and Shanghai behind for the serenity of Scandinavia, and since 2021 I work out of my Stockholm studio, exploring timeless shapes and designs inspired by the East Asian pottery tradition and functionalist Scandinavian design philosophy.
