FAQs
What does 'Travasi' mean and what is the concept behind this collection?
'Travasi' relates to the action of decanting or transferring liquids. The collection is designed to encourage users to move liquids from their original, often utilitarian, packaging into more aesthetically pleasing containers, embracing depersonalization and versatile use.
What is borosilicate glass?
Borosilicate glass is a type of glass known for its low coefficient of thermal expansion, making it resistant to thermal shock. It is also durable and commonly used for laboratory glassware and high-quality kitchenware.
Can I use this bottle for hot liquids?
Yes, borosilicate glass can handle hot liquids. However, avoid extreme temperature changes (thermal shock). For example, do not pour boiling water into a cold bottle. Allow the bottle to reach a moderate temperature before filling with hot liquids, and let hot liquids cool slightly before pouring them in.
What is the recommended way to clean the bottle?
While dishwasher safe at 40°C, hand washing with mild soap and warm water is recommended for the best care. Always dry with a soft cloth.
What are the dimensions of the bottle?
The bottle has a capacity of 90 cl and a diameter of 8.5 cm.
Is the green color applied to the outside or is it integrated into the glass?
The description mentions a 'color block design' and the bottle being in 'shades of lilac and green,' suggesting the color is integrated into the glass itself as part of the manufacturing process, creating a solid color block effect.
Troubleshooting
Bottle appears cloudy or has water spots after washing.
This can often be due to hard water. Try using a dishwasher detergent with a rinse aid or hand wash with distilled water and dry immediately with a soft cloth. For stubborn spots, a vinegar and water solution can be used for cleaning, followed by thorough rinsing.
Minor imperfections on the glass surface.
As the bottle is handmade and light molded, minor variations or small bubbles in the glass are characteristic of the artisanal process and do not indicate a defect. These are part of its unique charm.
Liquid is difficult to pour smoothly.
Ensure the opening is not obstructed. If a stopper or cap is used, make sure it fits correctly without creating an airtight seal that prevents airflow. For some liquids, like thicker oils, a slightly wider opening might be preferred, though this bottle's design aims for controlled pouring.
