Frequently Asked Questions
Can this go in the dishwasher/microwave?
Yes! Any functional pottery, including flute mugs, are safe to use in the dishwasher and microwave. Even if the flute mug handle fills with water, it will drain and will not damage the piece. That being said, hand washing is always gentler on pottery and can help it have a longer life!
Does water volume/heat change the pitch of a flute mug?
No! The handle, which functions as the flute, is closed off from the mug. The mug itself and the liquid inside does not affect the sound of the handle.
Are the sound objects/flute mugs tuned to a specific key?
No. Each piece is made by hand, so each varies slightly in pitch. Generally each flute mug has a similar pitch and pitch intervals. Each is individually tested before it is offered for sale.
