How to Care for Hand-Made Ceramics in the Tropics

 

Handcrafted ceramics elevate a home instantly. Whether sourced from local artists or curated inside a Cabo Furniture Store like House of Barrie, ceramics require specific care to withstand humidity and salt air.

Keep your ceramics looking flawless

1. Seal the base

Humidity can weaken porous clay. Sealing the base protects it from moisture.

2. Avoid direct sun

Long exposure fades glazes. Instead, place ceramics where Baja light reflects on them indirectly.

3. Clean gently

Use:

  • Soft microfiber

  • Mild soap

  • No abrasive pads

Bonus: Display styling tips

  • Pair ceramics with raw woods

  • Use round woven trays under vases

  • Mix heights (tall vases + short bowls)

Final thought

Ceramics bring personality and culture into modern coastal spaces. With simple care, they can last for years — especially when they come from a quality Furniture Store in Cabo.
