4. Caring for Your Crystal  As functional artworks with delicate beauty, crystal stemware does require a bit of special care: Hand wash using mild soap and room temperature water to prevent thermal shock. Avoid harsh detergents that can damage the surface. Rinse and dry thoroughly with a soft towel to prevent spots and streaks. Air drying standing upright is best to allow all moisture to fully evaporate. Store with cushioning to prevent chips and cracks if stacked or crowded. Consider padded stemware racks or cabinet organisers. Handle carefully to avoid damage from drops or impacts which can weaken the glass over time.
