Learn how to style and care for the Isle Glass Plate and Shallow Bowl sets in Light Smoke, from layering the lip to hand-washing handmade recycled glass.
Quick answer
Style the Isle Glass Plate and Shallow Bowl as a nested pair, using the bowl’s fit inside the plate’s lip for effortless layering, and always hand-wash both pieces in warm water with mild soap to protect the handmade recycled glass.
Why the lip changes how you set the table
The Isle Glass Plate is designed with a subtle lip, and the Shallow Bowl sits easily inside it. That means you can stack the bowl directly on the plate for a composed place setting, or use the plate alone for a cleaner look. The faintly smoky, bubbled hue is a result of the local production process on Bornholm, so slight variations between pieces are expected and part of the character, not a flaw.
Everyday care for handmade recycled glass
Because each piece is handmade from recycled glass, sudden temperature changes and harsh detergents are the main risks. Hand-washing is the safest routine; if you use a dishwasher, choose a gentle cycle and a mild detergent, and avoid overcrowding. The bubbled texture can trap water spots, so drying immediately with a soft cloth keeps the Light Smoke tone clear.
Step-by-step styling and care routine
- Layer the bowl inside the plate lip: Place the Shallow Bowl directly into the recessed lip of the Plate so it sits flush and stable. Check that the bowl is centered before adding food. A wobbly bowl means it is not fully seated in the lip—lift and reset it.
- Hand-wash in warm water with mild soap: Fill a basin with warm water and a small amount of gentle dish soap. Wash each piece individually with a soft sponge, then rinse thoroughly. Avoid hot water straight from the tap; extreme heat can stress recycled glass.
- Dry immediately with a soft lint-free cloth: Towel-dry each plate and bowl right after rinsing to prevent water spots from settling in the bubbled texture. Air-drying may leave mineral marks that are harder to remove later.
- Store with felt or cloth separators: Stack plates and bowls with a thin cloth or felt pad between each piece to prevent scratching and chipping. Never stack heavy items on top of the bowls; the shallow shape is more vulnerable to pressure.
