1) These sets should be restored in a frame box where these can be kept away from dust as dust can affect the glaze and brightness of the polish. If you are thinking to display your set in a cabinet, take care that cabinet should have a delicate surface and have porcelain putty pasted inside. This paste will prevent the further damage to the finish of set.
2) Experts say that Bone China Sets shouldn’t be submersed in water. Instead, these should be wiped out with a rag and a mild non-lemon detergent.
3) Be sure that your set shouldn’t be kept in direct sunlight as it could result in the breakage or crack and loss of the finish in set.
