Quick grating with ceramic blades
This grater is designed for ease of use. 
The blades, which resemble white pebbles, are fragments of crushed ceramic blocks. These sharp blades firmly grip ingredients and quickly cut through their fibers. You can grate radishes, carrots, onions, and more with light pressure and effortless ease. 
The silicone base makes it non-slip and extremely stable. The silicone protects the table, making it safe to use on the dining table.
Easy to clean
The design is also great for using it as a dish after grating. 
Food fibers don't easily get tangled, so you can easily rinse them off with just water. It's also easy to clean, which is a plus.

| Manufacturer's Recommended Maintenance | - After use, promptly clean and dry thoroughly. Insufficient drying may result in mold or stains. Product Characteristics/Handling Precautions: Please be careful not to chip the ceramic blade if it comes into contact with hard objects (such as plates or spoons). Do not stack dishes on top of the grater when storing. Take care not to cut your hands or other parts of your body. Black cracks around the ceramic area are a result of the manufacturing process and do not affect the quality. The non-slip silicone rubber becomes slippery when wet, so please ensure the product and table are completely dry before use. If the product is left on oil-absorbing materials such as wood, paper, or cloth, the oil contained in the silicone rubber may seep out and cause stains. This is not harmful to the human body. If the silicone rubber is left in contact with smooth surfaces such as ceramic or glass dishes for an extended period of time, the silicone rubber may adhere to them. Store the product without stacking it on dishes. - Because each piece is handmade, there are slight variations in color, shape, size, thickness, and other characteristics. - Pinholes and variations in pattern and color may be present. - Recommended for those who appreciate the warm texture unique to handmade items, each piece showing a unique character. - Prices may be reviewed or revised depending on the artist or kiln. |
