Frequently Asked Questions

A helpful place for all your questions. From orders and delivery to how our pieces are made and how they’ll arrive at your door.

Product

Where are Musango products made?

Our products are made by hand by small, family-owned manufacturers and skilled artisans in Portugal and Sri Lanka.

How should I care for my Musango ceramics?

All of our pieces are dishwasher safe but we don’t recommend using them in the microwave. We suggest using a coaster with our Musango Mug as the base can occasionally create light condensation.

Will my piece look exactly like the one on the website?

Not exactly and that’s part of the charm. Every Musango piece is shaped and painted by real hands so lines will wobble and stripes will vary slightly from piece to piece. We believe these subtle imperfections are what make our ceramics genuinely unique and special.

Can I use Musango images on my blog or website?

We put a huge amount of care into our photography so we ask that you don’t use our images without getting in touch with us first. If you’re sharing photos of Musango on social media we’d love for you to tag us @musango_ideas
