PRODUCT INFO
Bowls made of 24% lead crystal can be safe to use, but with some precautions:
-
Avoid Long-Term Food Storage: Lead can leach into food or liquids, especially acidic ones, if left in the bowl for extended periods. It's best to avoid using lead crystal for storing food or beverages.
-
Occasional Use: Using lead crystal bowls for serving dry or non-acidic foods (like nuts or candies) occasionally is generally considered safe.
-
Pregnancy and Children: Pregnant individuals and children should avoid using lead crystal items, as lead exposure can be harmful to developing bodies.
-
Cleaning: Hand wash lead crystal items with mild soap and water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or dishwashers, as they can damage the surface and potentially increase lead exposure.
If you're concerned about safety, you might consider using lead-free crystal alternatives for everyday use while reserving lead crystal for decorative purposes.
